Maybe it's not too bad when read-multiple-choice will underline
the letter ‘e’ in ‘shell’ in the prompt with:

  (read-multiple-choice "Switch project"
                        '((?E "Eshell")
                          (?e "shell")
                          (?h "help")))

so the prompt will be: _E_shell, sh_e_ll, _h_elp

Is it possible to use key sequences, e.g. ‘s h’ for ‘shell’, ‘s e’ for ‘search’?
