Issue description
The input completer is too complicated for every day use. It is good enough for the Wiki, which is intended for the power user, but for the average joe a simpler control must be presented. A select box control should fill this role. All possible players are displayed in a drop down box. New options may also be added. Choose one of the two options for implementation:
* To the right of the select box is a "Add" icon, which opens a model dialog to create a new topic.
* The select box contains in the beginning options like "New person", "New company". By choosing them a modal dialog opens up.
Unlike the input completer, which issues a search request only after the user has typed some letters and displays only 10 options, this control creates a request upon creation so that the drop down box can be filled. This is less economical, because many options are displayed altough only one is selected, but it is definitley easier to use. Caching is an important factor here.
