One of the useful features of the dropdown menus was that you could type the first few letters of a module name to jump straight to it.

This is sadly lacking in the current implementation of the activity chooser.

Let's add it back - make it so that you can start typing in the name of the activity that you want and have the list reduced to list on the matches.
