In FZF completion, how to use the current selection but continue the search

[johannes-gehrs]

This must be fairly basic but neither Google nor reading through the docs made it clear to me.

So let's say I am in the FZF tab completion, i.e. I've triggered it with **. I have entered a search query and it matches some dir. I want to select the current selection as a basis for searching further, but not exit FZF.

If I press enter I exit FZF, so that's not what I want.

Is that possible?

upon reflection, this isn't really necessary if you use search queries in a smart way
