Sort results in "Go to file" by how close they are to the working file (usability)

[janmarek]

Sometimes I have files with the same name in different folders. When I work on something and want to open a file I prefer the file in the same folder to appear first in the list. Now it's sorted (probably) alphabetically.

When working on file foo/something.js and searching for "lorem", the list in Go to file should look like:

• foo/lorem.js
• bar/lorem.js

When working on file bar/something.js and searching for "lorem" it should be the other way round:

• bar/lorem.js
• foo/lorem.js

Trying to open index.html in root and it's almost impossible.
