Heya Trent,

The problem with any sorting of the fast-open results is that this will 
remove the progressive nature of the hits... i.e. all of the hits would 
need to be collected first (and then sorted) before being made visible 
in the fastopen UI.

It could be made to behave in a two-phase approach:

1) perform the progressive basename matching first (as was done in 6.0)
2) once basename searches have completed, make a second pass to match 
anywhere in the directory path - these results would then be shown lower 
down in the hit list

This would mean all directory matches would be slow to show up - and 
they'd all show up in a rush at the end... This might be workable - you 
gonna submit me a patch ;)

Cheers,
Todd
