Description
Hi jonathanslenders!
Thank you for working on python-prompt-toolkit, it is a pretty nice tool!
I looked through the examples and could not find a specific kind of user input interface.
I was looking for something which would show a list of items vertically, a little bit like you would see them in a dropdown. The user would be able to traverse the list by pressing up and down.
If there is no such thing yet in python-prompt-toolkit, how could I work towards adding it in?
Thanks,
kovek

Research direction
Start by reviewing the examples and existing input interfaces in python-prompt-toolkit to determine whether a vertically navigable choice list already exists. If it does not, define the required interaction and integration points before estimating implementation work; done should include a usable dropdown-like list with up/down navigation.
