Changing preferences of Auto Complete to "off" does not clear the search
history at all. As soon as you turn the Auto Complete back "on" again...all
the seach history reappears. Actually, when trying to get rid of search
history, this is not a great option because with Auto Complete "off" it has
the appearance that no search history is there...when it is...it's concealed
somewhere can be easily made to reappear.
