Description
Currently, workspace/symbol results are sometimes sorted in alphabetical order making it difficult to navigate to certain symbols
I expected "CompletionSuite", which is at the bottom in the screenshot, to appear at the top because
- it's the shortest result
- it has a shared prefix "Compl" with the query "ComplSuite"
In this particular case, the language server (Metals, https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/itemdetails?itemName=scalameta.metals) returns "CompletionSuite" at the top of the results.
It would be nice if Visual Studio Code could either
- improve the default ordering of items, or
- introduce some option like
"editor.workspaceSymbolOrdering": "default" | "language-server"to preserve the ordering from the language server
