Actually, what I have in mind is page switching.  Consoles can be
switched with Alt-F<n>.  I've configured the same in fvwm.  On my
3x2 desktop, the top three pages are selected with Alt-F1/2/3 and
the bottom three pages are selected with Alt-1/2/3.  I also have
menu items "Put on page (0/1 0/1/2)" in the window menu, and I'd
like to also use the keys F1/2/3 and 1/2/3 to move the window to
the corresponding page.  At the moment this is not possible.

In other words: A typeahead search wouldn't solve this problem.
