Allow autocomplete to work with email addresses.
At the moment, an autocomplete index does not tokenize the "@" in email addresses. So when using an autocomplete search on an email address field, the search breaks as soon as the "@" is entered.
I started a thread in the community about this very issue.

You can achieve this functionality by using setting the autocomplete field mapping's `analyzer` field to lucene.keyword (see example) or a custom analyzer which uses the uaxUrlEmail tokenizer.
