Remove Quotes from Item Name Select List?

In a Guild Store Window, start typing, say, Essence of Armor in the search text box. By the time you hit the third letter a list drops down with matching items, and it updates every time you hit another letter. Very nice. Once you see the one you want you can click on it and search. All Very Cool.

But when you click on something in the list, the item Name is replaced surrounded by quotes. If your next search is Essence of Spell Critical, you would think to just delete Armor and start typing. That doesn't work so well.

If you click in the blank area after the text and start backspacing (as most people would do), you delete the trailing quote. With only the beginning quote left, the item list won't come back and the search will fail. If you just delete and type inside the quotes, the drop down list doesn't appear, and the search will fail unless you type the whole item name. It's easier to just delete the whole thing and start from the beginning.

If the quotes weren't there, that admittedly minor annoyance would go away.

I did take a look at your code, and while I couldn't find the code for the text box, it wasn't hard to understand. I have experience in C++, Java, and Python, among some older languages. I have never coded an AddOn though, and don't know LUA very well. But if I can help in any way (since I can't afford RL donations), please let me know.
