Improve Sorting #15

Great project!

I would find it much more useful if, like Spotlight on Mac OS and other autocomplete tools, the list of matching tabs was sorted based on a basic set of common rules.

Some examples:

exact tab title match should be highest ranked
prefix-based matches should be ranked higher than matches in the middle of a tab's title or description
older / less used tabs should be weighted slightly lower

This could be probably done nicely by using a fuzzy-search library like Fuse.js
