When inviting someone to a note (following https://hackmd.io/c/tutorials/%2Fs%2Finvite), it is sometimes hard to find them. For example, when the person use the github authentication, you have to search FirstName LastName rather than LastName or than github-username or any substring of the username. As an example, if I type "grisel" in the search bar I should be able to find "Olivier Grisel"
and I am not (see screenshots below):
Describe the solution you'd like
Below are another few nice things to have (in an ideal world, I completely understand you may have higher priorities). Not sure how hard they are technically (probably not that straightforward) and whether some are easier than others:
- using "hackmd.io username" could be specified in the tutorial (https://hackmd.io/c/tutorials/%2Fs%2Finvite). The search bar has a text (before you type anything) saying "search user by email ..." maybe it "or hackmd.io user name" could be added (if it fits ...)
- search by github (Twitter, or other auth types) names. By the way, I am not sure what username I get when I sign in with github. Maybe you should keep the github username (e.g. lesteve) rather than my full name (e.g. Loïc Estève)
- more flexible search: if I type "grisel" in the search bar I should be able to find "Olivier Grisel"
