Hard to find settings with new IntelliSense sorting

[bpasero]

I find the new sorting in IntelliSense quite bad for settings where I typically do not think about camel case matching but rather the name of the setting in words:

The most relevant entries when I type "close" for me are now at the end of the list:

Stable:

Either those 2 entries should be sorted to the top or we disable fuzzy scoring for settings at least.

Just to clarify sorting which is always alphabetically. Scoring is applied to select the best match as type (no resorting happens).

I agree the screen shots show unhappy cases which we should tweak. Today, we rank matches on upper-cases character or after separators (., _, etc) higher than regular lower-case matches. We should also add some sort of new-gap penalty that favours single long matches over multiple short matches

workbench and zen settings disappear in crowd.
