Hi,

I press CTLR + P to find files. I'm looking for a file index.cfm in a folder sap
In the results list I see many files in folders that contain the characters s, a and p anywhere distributed in that string in that order.
The file in the one folder that's an exact match is only to be found after I scroll towards the bottom.

In my screen you see the bottom entry. The first s found in the path is highlighted,
I would love to see that code gives a high priority to files whose name or path contain the search string as entered by the user.
