Created attachment 263231 [details] Quick Access search for "Code" Hi, I was just using Quick Access search to search for a view called "Code Search". I blindly typed CMD+3, "code", and hit Enter. To my surprise, the API Docs view from Code Recommenders opened. A closer look (see screenshot) explained this behavior: Now that the view's category is shown in parentheses (FWIW, I like this feature), both "API Docs (Code Recommenders)" and "Code Search (Ctrlflow)" match, but "API Docs" comes before "Code Search". I wonder whether the search could be made more intelligent and aware of the two-level structure of the results (Views, Commands, and Preferences results all have two levels, although other result types like Perspectives don't).
+1 for giving prio to the real match over the category match. Our Quick Access master is Patrik, assigning to him.

On a related note, you can currently search for category separators like '(', ')', and '-', as they are considered to be part of the label. IMHO, this doesn't make sense and need not be supported.
If an element starts with the search string, we should consider it a perfect match, while in other cases it should be just a good match.
