Looking at the video, I want to immediately (i.e., without switching to a mode) type "can" and have "Cannonball Adderley" highlighted at the bottom of the focused "artists" tab.
Does it work that way?

You can however, in most contexts, switch to the "category filter" view by pressing "f" without explicitly engaging command mode. This will switch the view, then focus the search field. So you can type "fcan" and get artist, album, and genre search results for "can". Not ideal, but does work and is still pretty quick.
