      The tests above confirm both the search behavior, and the behavior of the new course search box - by confirming non admins can only see enrolled courses (not course 4), and the student can't see a hidden enrolled course (course 3).

    Description

      An important missing feature in global search is course filtering. All indexed documents have a courseid field, the field can be used to set the filter sent to the search engine.

      For what I've heard autocomplete form field, is a drop down if there are less than X courses, otherwise you have to start typing, but this courses filter seems a good candidate to use it.
