Its nice to see this patch. I was thinking about a similar patch already...

So I have same wishes about this area :)

It would be nice if the delay could be avoided. The easiest thing is to set 
the channel on if the already typed in number could not be changed to a valid 
value...

Like when the user enters 6 and he has only channels with numbers lower than 
60 then you can be sure that the user wants channel 60.

Also if the user enter any two digit number (eg 32) and the user does not have 
any three digit numbered channel, then it could be set already.

Also I would like if there would be a configuration option, that if set then 
the channel would be changed without delay.
eg enter 3 -> change to channel 3, enter 2 (without delay) -> change to 
channel 32
eg enter 3 -> change to channel 3, enter 2 (after delay) -> change to channel 
2

I will implement all these sooner or later. But it would be nice if you could 
implement it sooner :)

Thanks
