Looks usable, e.g.

(tmm-prompt '("top" ("menu" ("choice 3" . 3) ("choice 4" . 4) ("choice 5" . 5))))

The only weird things are how it picks the shortcuts and the choices are
not visually highlighted when you use the arrow keys.

For the keyboard shortcuts, it would be nice if I could just number them
sequentially.  Do I need to use the keymap version of the MENU parameter
for that?
