            Bug ID: 235095
           Summary: Select keymap quickly by pressing a-z (e.g. d for
                    Danish)
           Product: Base System
           Version: 12.0-RELEASE
          Hardware: amd64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: misc
          Assignee: bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: scootergrisen at gmail.com

If i run bsdinstall (FreeBSD Installer) and see the language list at Keymap
Selection i would like to be able to press "d" key to go to keymaps that starts
with "d" like "Danish" but nothing happens.

If i press 1-9 i can to to item 1-9 in the list but that is not really usefull
when the item i want it beyond number 9.

If i want to select "Danish" now i have to press e.g.:

    PageDown+PageDown+Up+Up+Up+Up+Up+Up+Up+Up+Enter

If i could select with a-z i could select "Danish" by pressing:

    d+Enter

Which would be much quicker/smarter.

Tested in VirtualBox 6.0
