A sort of.
But directly invokable via shortcut key and with filter and/or sorting.
A (possibly long) list of text entries but you can type some characters and
it immediately filters the list to the matching entries only (as in the 
component/view all-dialog).
They could be sortable by last usage or lexically (or others) by the user.
Windows start menu search finally uses this too (although this has other 
issues).

Or a tree like list where typing takes you to the next matching entry and enter 
invokes it.

When programming I would not like to move away my hands from the keyboard to 
reach for the mouse.
That's not ergonomical.
