Description

I think it would be nice to have an option for the chooser to start with just the entry field showing, and expand to show the matches once the user starts typing - similar to the way Spotlight, Lacona or other choosers work.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at the hs.chooser implementation in Hammerspoon, specifically the methods that control the visibility of the results list. Add an option to start with the list hidden and show it only when the user types something.
