"Add New" search suggestions could be smarter
When I add a new item, and type "bank", I expect the first suggestion to be "bank account". Doesn't that make sense?
Instead, I'm shown a list of what I guess are "popular logins" -- various banks...

Another example: New Item -> type "soft" -> expect to see "software license" at the top -> instead see suggestion to create login for "https://studio.softr.io/auth/signin".
Softr.io is a website I've never heard of and looks like I will never need to make an account at. Meanwhile, I use the "software license" item type regularly. But even an avid user of Softr.io would only need to create an account there one time, yet might create very many "software license" item types. Both usage scenarios argue for prioritizing categories over specific logins.
I would even suggest that "software license" should appear at the top of the list for a search as short as "s". For me, this search currently bring up another random suggested login -- "Stew Leonard's". Again, I have no idea what this is. Sure, a user trying to create a login for "Stew Leonard's" might be amazed to be shown this as the top result. But how many such users exist? Wouldn't most of them create this login directly in the browser? (That's how I save logins most of the time.) And anyway, to my point above, they'd only be amazed one time, when they initially create the login. Below this login are several other suggestions that appear random to me ("Macy's", etc.) -- followed by suggestions for items titled "s" in other categories -- but nowhere in this initial list do I see "software license." It should be first.
