Thanks Kevin!
yes you're right it's a missing feature, prefix search run a specific
query to find the exact match.
I'll try to add it.

Thanks David! That page is awesome for anecdotal
testing.
I notice that a search for IOL (or iol) would also benefit from
prioritizing an exact match. The prefix autocomplete brings up IOL
near the bottom, but the suggester misses it entirely. Same for XP,
CPU, etc.

I uploaded a small HTML page to compare both approaches:

We have been working on a replacement
autocompletion API that is
more forgiving than a strict prefix search. The scoring
algorithm's have a long way to go but we have the first run
through of building the completion index for enwiki so i thought
i would share:
Here are a couple examples, feel free to change the text= around
to other things.

Don't stress out too much over the scoring yet, we know it needs
some work and have plans to integrate page view information in
here to help more popular articles rise the the top.
