When I'm doing any kind of regex search, like g|, I can press the up and down arrow to scroll through recent searches. I wish I could see those searchers I'm scrolling through, so like a drop-down list with last 5-10 searches, except it's dropping up rather than down. And also it should probably only drop up after I started browsing through history, otherwise it would not be justified that it's hiding the sheet text.

Yes, I've wanted fuzzymatch for other input fields. Even a non-fuzzymatch, like the shell Ctrl-R (#2081)

If you want to take a look at all your input history, check your input_history.jsonl. This has all your VisiData input history, many of the values are labeled with a type: vd $HOME/.visidata/input_history.jsonl
