I really wouldn't suggest doing it while typing the title, like autocomplete, since the performance hit of doing that will be enormous. It might be viable to do based on when clicking off the title box (attached the JS onblur event) but even then it's still going to really have an impact on performance as you get a lot of topics - even if it's just limited to the one board at the time.
