Description

When adding a reviewer, after typing "Richard", I don't get the Richard that has reviewed by far most of the patches, but a whole bunch of pretty much inactive Richards. It would be awesome if that was ordered by how many reviews people have done.

We don't plan to support this in the upstream. Mostly, we imagine these should be filled out via the command line with arcanist. Second it's quite an amount on work, and likely to equally provide confusing results as correct ones. If these is something that occurs a lot, recommend using a Project to hold the usual team of reviewers and use that instead.

Also, we did recently have a number of patches improving matching in typeaheads in the past few months. Updating to HEAD might improve things, depending where you are. There are also a handful of other typeahead improvement tasks floating around as well.
