That's what I mean, pressing a key X means "go to next item starting
with X". You can press repeatedly (slower than some threshold I
suppose), and it will cycle through items starting with X.
If you type XYZ quickly (faster than said threshold) it will take this
as the prefix. As far as I experimented it's not a filter.
