In this type of dialog or similar, how can I move the current selection
in the list by typing the first letter, or even better several letters,
to get to the first fitting line?:

set newStorage to (choose from list thefolders with prompt "Move to which
folders")

Is there something built into Applescript or Mac OS X I can use or do I
have to handle this on my own? Any suggestions?

This works in Tiger.
