Description

Currently the assignee selection for issues / pull requests is not searchable. When working in a large organisation with large teams it can be annoying to select the assignee of an issue.

I'd propose to make the current list searchable.

Open questions:

  • Is there a reason why this is not searchable?
  • Should the milestone list be searchable too?
  • Same for Labels?

I already did a first version of the filter for assignees.

Any feedback is much appreciated and if we agree on the open questions i'd be happy to create a PR for this UI enhancement.

Please see a screenshot below of the filterable assignee list (needed code changes are only inside the templates)

In my case this would be not usable unless the search facility operate both on username and other fields like email, first name and last name... @lunny is this what you intend as well or do we have a different approach?

I think we could search both username and full name. We have a page to do that on organization team settings.
