Description

When clicking the Vernacular or Analysis Language input box in Create Project, a list of autocomplete suggestions may appear until mouseup — depending on browser settings. After mouseup, the "Choose Language Details" modal appears and the suggestions disappear. Disable autocomplete for these inputs on all browsers so that only the modal appears.
