Ignore certain names for auto complete

Oct 26, 2018 Heini link
I want to be able to ignore certain names when pressing TAB to auto complete a name.
For example: I type "Iron" and expect to get "Iron Lord" but instead I get "Iron Alert or some other name that starts with Iron.

Unless you set them to /ignore, I would expect the names to be alphabetical. Why would it be logical for the devs to change this?

That might be tough to do.
Perhaps a way to progress through all the names in sequence each time tab is pressed might be doable?

I was thinking about a new command like /ignoreautocomplete PLAYER. Maybe something shorter but you get the idea.
Or just something like PaKettle suggested. Pressing TAB again to cycle through the names.

tab-cycle sounds like a better idea, though a /iac would be easier.

I wrote TabReply++ to handle multiple tab-presses to cycle through names. I think it had a quirk though that I never fixed.

According to Voupr it doesnt work on mobile...I'm guessing becuase of how the keyboard on mobile works? I bet it works for Bluetooth keyboards if so.
