Well yes, but the question is how to make use of the little numbers that
are also shown next to the proposals. Actually, the following page seems
to suggest that Alt + <number> should do the job:

Unfortunately, typing Alt+1 or Alt+2 for me here on Windows does nothing.
Doesn't work for me on Linux either. But up/down arrow and Enter
does.
