Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
When converting ie. from CSV-database table to PostgreSQL database, all columns are varchar(32767) by default.

[It is easier to use Import Data > Import from CSV, but if one uses CSV-Database using CsvJdbc-driver, all columns are varchar(32767).]

When exporting the table, one can choose to edit the column types using “Configure metadata structure”-method and pop-up window. When selecting “Target type” to each columns, there seem to be several tens of choices, which one has to scroll with mouse wheel longish time to find the wanted one, ie. “date”, “integer”, “numeric”, and so on.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
Would be intuitive, to be able to type first few letters of the wanted type by keyboard, and the scroll list would shortcut to that place.

**Additional context**
