Comment (by keesiemeijer):

 Thinking about it more we should just use `array_unique`. Clicking a
 filter or function with the same (duplicate) name will result in the same
 search results for both. The search results are displayed with the type
 identifier. Autocomplete should help you find what exists depending on the
 search filters. We could show what search filters are used at the top of
 the autocomplete item list to make it more clear where you're searching
 in.

 An alternate option for submitting the form after you click an item could
 be to add focus (and the cursor) back to the search form so you can refine
 the search query before submitting.
