Use Omnibar to search through user defined commands, similar to Emacs search for commands

Prelude

Couldn't find it.

  • Have you searched your problem in issues?

Yes.

Error details

Not an error, simply trying to figure out a way to search through user defined searchengines within an Omnibar and search through annotations, rather than a keybinding, similar how Emacs allows to search for commands.

I tried defining SearchEngine parameters in Front.openOmnibar, but couldn't get it to work.

Maybe someone has a graceful solution to this already.

Context

browsing anywhere, deciding to go to a search engine i defined. I have many of them and forget some by not usign them often. My current process is opening shortcut helper, search through annotations, find the key to it, and then execute the key. Would like to have the omnibar be openeded to search through user defined aliases.

I know it's not the same, but you can press ? to for other commands not related to search engines.

Yes, that's my way of findings search engines I forgot, but it would be nice to be able to bind it to a command that can a) search by annotations b) execute on enter
