You should also be able to press the @ symbol followed by part of the name,
followed by enter. (for example, "@John Smith" without the quotes, then return.
Most of the time, it will autocomplete for you.

You can simply press escape to get out of this menu.
Extras is more like a collection of icons than a menu. It's set up near the
