My file layout is not particularly suited to project treatment, yet I often have dozens of files open.

Open Files in the sidebar is most useful when many files are open at once, whereas the tab bar becomes unusable.

However, finding a particular file among dozens, or scanning the list quickly to see if the file is already open is nearly impossible because the files are not in a sorted order.

Goto Anything helps, but feels sub-optimal.

Ideally, and incorporating other preferences suggested here, I'd like to be able to toggle between Sorted, Modified, Stack or Tab order.

But even a user-setting to pick my preferred order would be great.

The new updates in Sublime Text 3 are fan-freaking-tastic.  I absolutely love using sublime.  The "Goto Symbol in Project" and "Goto Definition" are going to be huge timesavers for me.  I work on projects that involve C, CSS, HTML, Javascript, Lua, and large makefiles.  In particular, many C functions are called by Lua, but referred to as strings.  The "Goto Definition" is huge for being able to find the original C function being referred to.  Thank you.

While "Find in Files" does allow me to find all the references to a symbol by direct search, it would be nice to have a "Goto References" or "List References" option to quickly list all references to the symbol in the project as a faster method vs direct search.  I'm not sure if the project index is structured in such a way to make that easy.

I cannot praise Sublime Text 3 enough.  What an amazing piece of software.

hi please add RTL (right to left) languages support to sublime text , RTL languages like arabic and hebrew and maybe other languages , sublime text should detect the current language changed in the OS like windows 7 and give support for it ...

Maybe I'm misunderstanding or missing a setting, but it appears things have have key bindings (Open File, Close File, etc.. don't appear) in the command palette.  This is frustrating as a new user, since I don't know all the shortcuts and why exclude these from the list?

some projects have an annoying amount of directories, without files, just more directories to navigate down till you get to files.

intellij and some other editors. 

provide a way to flatten the directory tree. so instead we have a list of shortened dir names for those dirs that contain src files.
