in addition to my previous comment: lp:~openerp-dev/openobject-server/7.0-bug-1203727-order-by does not fix the issue

In the real case reported by my customer, the database has different subsidiary companies in the customers sharing common prefixes in their names. The impression that the users have is that the company they are looking for when typing the first letters of the name and getting a list of suggestions with only 1 element which is not the one they are looking for is that the partner does not exist in database. I can certainly tell them to type more letters but this is at best an ugly workaround for a real useability issue (what if the user does not remember enough of the name to properly type in more letters?)
