TheTitleKey extension provides a case-insensitive page title prefix search. It uses a separate table for the keys so that it can be deployed without an expensive rebuild of core tables and uninstalled later in preference for a different search extension such asCirrusSearch.
For the average site administrator, the benefit of this extension is that it allows search suggestions (e.g., fromOpensearch API) to be case-insensitive.
