Description

Hi,
Interactive mode is fantastic. I have one request to make it even better.

If I am presented a very long list - for example all the user or all the compartments - it would be nice if I could type the first letters and a filter based on those characters is automatically applied.

This makes navigating large list much more easy and fast.

Thanks!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the interactive-mode code that presents long user or compartment lists, then determine how typed first letters could filter those lists. Done means users can type initial characters to narrow the displayed choices and navigate large lists more quickly.
