When the HUD first appears, menu items could be displayed beneath the

This could probably help migration from menus but probably shouldn't be a long term solution...
Perhaps breadcrumbs could be used to indicate hierarchy:
|__________|
Menu > Tools
*Preferences* Menu 2 Menu 3
Pref 1
Pref 2
Pref 3
When search results are displayed, menu items in the hierarchy could
be clickable:
|_Tools_____|
Tools > Preferences > Pref 1
Tools > Preferences > Pref 2
Tools > Preferences > Pref 3
(Clicking the word "Tools" or "Preferences" in the above results would
send you to the hierarchy view above.)
...because I reckon the purpose of the HUD is also removing/hiding hierarchical structures, this seems to be conflicting.
