OOUIification

It’s Monday morning and I’m spelunking through OOUI code looking for some particular things to help fit OOUI into jQuery UI — it’s sort of working, and things feel like they might end up working alright. It’s fun working on old bits and bringing them up to date (although, perhaps next year this new code will be rewritten in Vue, I’m not sure). This is for the insert-link dialog in WikiEditor, a thing that I find myself using pretty often. It’s never felt as good as the link-inserter in Dokuwiki, although I can’t now remember why I think that, it’s been years since I touched Dokuwiki. Maybe not being restricted to prefix searching was part of it (did Dokuwiki search on any subpage prefix as well?).
