currently ajaxsearch.js (mw/skins/common/) waits for 3 letters before executing the search.. It would be nice if this could be changed outside of the script without needing to edit it directly (and remembering not to overwrite it when updating)...
Created attachment 4589 [details] Patch to linker.php I'm not sure if this works. It seems almost /too/ easy. Can someone more familiar with this part of the code take a look? Thanks.
Ignore all that. Wrong bug.
The old ajax search has been retired, and the new one (mwsuggest) doesn't enforce a minimum in this way.
