This ability breaks how choice-mode then goes on to number other items once
the choice-characters have been used up. Since the behaviour is to keep
numbering the entries after the last one, if you do:
set -g choice-characters "1 3 0 9 2"
amd then look at, say, choose-tree, you'll find the sequence very strange
indeed. Not to mention you cannot guarantee, even with the ordering here,
that you'll never get duplicate entries, making the entire point of pressing
a letter to go to a key-binding redundant.
Hmm... so I wonder now, whether this is worth it. The assignment of letters
and numbers here, to denote the items which you can select with a
key-binding is always deterministic, and if you go beyond the default, then
you're prompted for selection anyway.
Why is this patch useful to you, out of interest?
