When I'm using the fabulous FilteredItemSelectionDialog I often mis-select my file. I believe this happens when I know which file I want so I quickly type the name and hit enter. But I end up in another file.

For example, open devtools on (source, not built) devtools, open the Sources panel, control O to bring up the dialog, place the mouse on the center of the dialog, escape the dialog, enter it again with control O, then type Script.js. I get all kinds of different answers. (Linux FWIW).

Just to avoid this, I propose we default to the shortest match rather than the first match.
