Better control in fzf searching

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Being able to use fzf with / to find tracks in the liked songs (gy), for example, is an awesome addition. The problem is that once searched, I can't do anything other than play the track. If I want to add the searched track to the queue, this is not possible because every command will be typed in the search field. I've tried C-space, change focus, but nothing works. The only key that works is enter, if I press C-space I'm thrown back at the top of my liked songs list.

Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if the fzf search for every page worked like the search page, e.g: press / a new field pops below the current playing song progress bar, you can type in and the list is being filtered as you type. But, as you press FocusNextPane you drop to the results list where you can apply the same commands as you would be able to in the liked songs list or the search results list

Describe alternatives you've considered
What I'm doing today is that I use the search page to search for the song I want, even though I know the song is already saved in my library and then I use Z to add to the queue.

Additional context
Version: 0.20.4

Yes, but it should show a popup for you to initiate an action on the selected track.

No, not every command. Commands with key bindings control + {char} or alt + {char} still work in the search. FYI, AddSelectedItemToQueue does have a C-z (control+z) binding. You can also define your own keybindings for a command for it to work with search.

Search is intended to be interactive. The solution you'd like to see defeats that purpose

I see thanks for the clarification, in any case there’s the C-space bug, if I press it, the interactive search goes away and I’m thrown back at the top of the list. Regarding the fzf search, would it be possible to add the binding to move to the next pane and unfocus the search box? This would solve all the issues
