Research direction

Start by reading the documentation and implementation of quickui#menu#install, then trace how custom menu entries handle navigation keys. Confirm whether n and N are supported for this menu configuration; document the required setup or clarify the limitation in the relevant quickui help text.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I tried blow settings:

call quickui#menu#install('&Regex', [
			\ ['Search Colors', '/\v#([0-9a-fA-F]{6}|[0-9a-fA-F]{3})', ''],
			\ ['Search 0~255', '/\v([1-2][0-5]{2}|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])', '/\v([1-2][0-5]{2}|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])'],
			\ ])

But can't use n or N to nevigate.
