Description
How the feature should work
When the tiling popup appears, you can start typing to search applications and open a new window.
Why this feature should be added
If you tile a window in preparation to open a new app and tile it beside, the tiling popup is more of an inconvenience than anything else. You can of course adapt to open all apps first, then tile, but this change would make the workflow smoother and save precious time

Research direction
Start by tracing the tiling popup's handling and the application-search and new-window entry points involved in the GNOME extension. The feature is done when typing while the popup is visible can search applications and open a new window without disrupting the intended tiling workflow.
