Description

Introduce @MinLength annotation to add on autoComplete action, eg:

public Foo someProperty()

{ ... }
public List<Foo> autoCompleteSomeProperty(@MinLength(3) String searchArg) { ... }

or

public void someAction(Foo a, int b)

{ ... }
public List<Foo> autoComplete0SomeAction(@MinLength(3) String searchArg) { ... }

The default, if not specified, is to enter a single character.
