FR: Filtering isearch candidates #27

Description

@mikavilpas

This is a feature request for the following use case:

The user has a popup, with a lot of elements in it. He/she would like
to match a part of them at a time, each time filtering the remaining
candidates with a new search.

Example:

The user has these words in his/her popup:

  • schtroumpfed
  • squirrelled
  • broughammed
  • schmaltzed
  • squirreled
  • scrootched
  • scroonched
  • scraunched
  • strengthed

to match words starting with "sc" the user can isearch for "sc".
Then the user would like to match words with "led" in them, so the
user performs another search for "led".
The remaining match is "scrolled".

The words were taken from:
