Description

The autocomplete functionality is flashy, but it doesn't work with the plain editor, which means that the available crates are not very accessible.

Still thinking about a "show all the things" page with versions and links as a fallback for this.

Research direction

Start by examining the autocomplete functionality and the plain editor path to understand how available crates are currently exposed. The issue suggests a fallback “show all the things” page with versions and links, but does not define the page scope or acceptance criteria; confirm those details before implementation.
