Allow Typeahead search on SObject type in "Create New Apex Trigger" dialog

Triggers can only be created for some SObjects, so most UIs for creating new triggers, including Illuminated Cloud, use a picklist to select the SObject type. See the attached shot for an example (via File > New > Apex Trigger).

In an org that has a lot of customization (or a lot of managed packages installed), this list can be quite long, and finding the right SObject in the picklist can be a little annoying. Instead, could we use a search box to allow type-ahead filtering of the list? The existing picklist only supports typing the first letter of a word to jump to the first item in the list starting with that letter.
