Provide a sort option for open files in the sidebar
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.

Sublime Text 2 has currently a Go next/prev Stack which is just short of this functionality. There really needs to be a "Show stack" keyboard shortcut to show the files in the editor in a given order (last visited - stack, last modified, alphanum).
I don't think it necessarily have to bring the list in the sidebar. This is a temporary view that is closed as soon as you select the file you want from the stack list. It is like a search window in that sense.
As mentioned in the above link, Visual Studio has a great Opened Files dialog (Alt-tab).
