Incremental search box in "Directory Hotlist" menu

Hi.

After having used the Change Folder menus for years, I have populated it with several dozens of entries in multiple subfolders. Even though I keep it well arranged, an incremental search box at the top of the Folder selection drop-down list would be really handy to quickly filter & select a specified folder (of which I certainly remember parts of its name but browsing several subfolders to pick it is much slower).

Is it the Directory Hotlist you are referring to?

Not sure what you are referring to. I talk about the custom list that opens with Ctrl-D or the "*" button at the top-right ofboth panels (next to the "v" Recent folders button).

An incremental search for this list to pick a folder nested inside submenus would be great and much faste than using Directory Tree (Alt-F10).

And what does it say in the Help text when you hover that button? here it says "Directory hotlist (Ctrl+D)" when I run TC with Englisg language.

It is a standard Window menu, AFAIK is such a search box not possible here.
