android launcher like Trebuchet but starting search right on emtering app drawer (lemmy.ml)

I would like for app search to start right as I enter the app drawer and I want the app to start as enough chars are typed to match the app without additional clicks. I’m aware of 0launcher, kiss, and other launchers doing this (I believe I tried all the launchers available on f-droid) but I want to stay with trebuchet style drawer. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Update: I think I will stick with Olauncher. I've just discovered that it allows to edit the names of applications in the drawer. This eliminates the need of icons for me.

Kvaesitso has a setting to enable start right after opening the drawer if that's what you want though it's not as minimal like olauncher. https://www.f-droid.org/packages/de.mm20.launcher2.release/

thanks for your reply. Kvaesitso seems to depend on closed google libs.
