Visible info icon attached to term in search bar drop down list

Description of the enhancement

Certain terms in YSO have been marked with SKOS-XL to contain controversial language. These will result in an info icon and an attached pop-up description text acknowledging the problematic nature of the term. It would be good to include this info icon also in the search bar drop down list (=autocomplete?). The description text will probably be too difficult to be included within this drop down list but the info icon alone, I think, would be sufficient enough in this context.

Who are the users that would benefit from the enhancement and how?

This feature would strengthen the message of these controversiality tags and weaken the user effect of "What? How can this vocabulary include this offensive term?" To be sure, this is also a matter of usability and how much information can be visualized etc but I would like to note that search bar drop down list is often the first place where users encounter terms therefore providing the first impression of a vocabulary, which I hope is not irrelevant.

Info icons could also be included in 1) enter search results, 2) alphabetical tab, 3) hierarchy tab. True, the list is long and the aforementioned usability issues apply here as well. But I think there is a more general discussion to be had here. How much information is enough? Can the message of controversiality be excluded (ignored) in some places? If we show the info icon in some places but not all we leave the door open for user experiences that this info icon was supposed to eliminate, in my opinion.

What new functionalities would the enhancement make possible?

Why is the enhancement important?

(Why should this be prioritized, instead of spending energy on something else? Who would do the work to make this happen?)
