Feature

I would like a lot if ctags-search used prompt instead of menu after selecting tag, this way we could leverage the very handy fuzzy algorithm integrated in kakoune to select the desired tag.

Usecase

Ease of use when seraching tags...

Here's a generic reimplementation of menu using prompt mode: https://github.com/kak-lsp/kak-lsp/blob/73a6fd4bf1c6137f694ebf97280b8071c28c5314/rc/lsp.kak#L196

The real fix though should be to give the menu mode fuzzy filtering. Note that it does have regex search with /, see also https://github.com/mawww/kakoune/issues/4396
