It's currently very handy, to select quickly a node by pressing just the first letter.
Like "P" for "Particle Force"
Unfortunately the nodes aren't only sorted alphabetically, but also by category (birth, simulation, particles...).
So when I want a "PhysX Shape" I can't get it quickly, because I have to press the letter "P" many times (in order to navigate forwards)
It could be there a additional key combination with quickly typing a second or third letter to get a more narrow search:
P + H = Ph
C + O = Co (Collision)
It means not both together, it means within maybe 1/2 second pressing the second letter, and it will be used then as second letter.
This would only be an extra selection hotkey, it would not affect the existing way it works. So if it came to PhysX Bind you could just by pressing "P" again navigate further forward through the list, but you skipped already all P-words before. (So for quickly double-clicking a letter it would not activate the "second letter search".)
(A similar way of selection is well known from zBrush, to quickly navigate through hundreds of brushes to the brush you need. There you can even define custom hotkey combinations)
