Enhanced search for the search bar to find friends

This is just an idea I had this morning at 4:30 am mountain time us and canada... lol about having the ability to have the search bar query the database for all first or last names by using a check box to decide first/last, and based on a minimum of the first 3 letters of the name entered. based on those first 3 letters, a drop down list would be generated with a small thumbnail of their profile image. This way, in case you have multiple people named James MacKay on your site, you can narrow down your search - something like Facebook's. I don't know how hard this would be to do, but thought I would throw it out there.
