Description
In my menu, my first drop down has items like this:
&History
&Line-wrap
They clash with left (h) and right (l) navigational keys. When I press them, it moves to my last, or my second drop down, respectively.
Is it possible to provide an option to turn those hard-coded keys off (leaving just the basic unambiguous arrow keys), or better yet, let users define all of them. (In my case, I use a layered keyboard, so arrow keys, Home/End, PgUp/Dn, etc. are readily available under my fingers so I'd really like to free up hjkl keys for menu items, and maybe use Home/End to replace J/K.)
By the way, brilliant plugin! Thank you for making everyone's life so much easier!

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the menu behavior with items such as &History and &Line-wrap, then locate the hard-coded navigational key handling in vim-quickui. Done means users can disable those keys or define the menu navigation keys, including the arrow-key-only behavior described.
