Reinitialize Typeahead with new source

Sorry, I'm struggling to understand your use-case in this scenario.

You can attach more than one Bloodhound object to a single typeahead control on initialisation. However, you are saying that you wish to switch suggestion engines half-way through the typeahead receiving input?

Can you provide an example of why you'd need this functionality, over say, two separate typeahead controls, or a single bloodhound object with all combinations of both numbers and letters, or a simple text input with a Regex validation?

I have two bloodhound objects... And yes.. I wish to switch objects half
way.. I'm trying to implement a kind of search where different backends are
queried depending on the suggestion selected before. In my use case, a
previous suggestion selected has some semantic meaning and cannot be
clubbed with another set of suggestions as you suggest. Based on the
previous suggestion selected, another backend is queried and I want the
suggestions of that to be isolated and shown with the type ahead.

I hope you understand my case.
I have already figured out a hacky way to make this work... Basically, i
created another isolation scope in the directive and sent the
numbers.ttAdapter from the controller to the directive. But I was wondering
if there could be a nicer method that could perform this.

I'm afraid that this isn't a use-case that I can easily support, as Twitter Typeahead simply isn't designed to be used in this way.
