autocomplete symbols order

I think it'd feel more natural if autocomplete would sort the list of symbols based on the current position in the buffer, listing first those occurrences that are closer to the current position.
A good example of such feature is seen in Textmate's autocomplete.

It sorts on distance and frequency

Then could it be that frequency affinity is sorted before location proximity?  
It just almost never happens that my most close-by symbol is listed as the first entry.

Hi, any consideration about my last comment?
