Describe the feature that you'd like

Allow to right click and checkout a branch from the branch search dialog dropdown directly
(workflow improvement)

Additional context (optional)

I have to switch branches a lot.
The current workflow is:

  1. Search the branch
  2. Left click it
  3. Right click at the branch itself in the graph view -> ctx menu -> left click checkout

If the branches have a very long name and the git tree is very complex its not 100% straight forward to directly left click the branch at the top of the graph view in step 2.
Then the workflow would be even worse:

  1. Search
  2. Left Click
  3. Click somewhere else so the dropdown disappears
  4. Right click at the branch itself in the graph view -> ctx menu -> left click checkout

With a right click ctx menu from the search dialog this would look as follows

  1. Search
  2. Right click -> ctx menu -> left click checkout
