11 years ago I've been mulling over what the optimal grouping is for a while now and I think I tend to agree with you after I've used the plugin for a while.
I think that there are 3 main ways that you could do the groupings
- starting at the top and working down (the way it is now, which was the easiest to do), or starting at the bottom
- starting from the cursor position and going all up or down from the current positon and wrapping around when you hit the bottom
- radiating out from the cursor position, so that if there are a lot of matches, and 62 jump targets, that you'd have 31 matches on either side of the cursor. Hitting enter would give you the next 31 in either direction till you hit a screen edge, then it'd give the remainder into the expanding section on the other side (and start back at the cursor if you wrap around).
More often than not, I want something closer to the current cursor position than top down gives you. I think the 3rd option is likely the best one (but a little more work). I'll see what I can whip up this week on this.

I think it would be helpful if the initial batch that is shown/active was the batch closest to the cursor position.
Most of the time, the character I want to jump to is within a few lines of my current cursor position, but if I use e.g.
Ctrl+; ethe topmost batch on the screen is the first one that is active. So I often find myself having to hit Enter until the desired (closest) batch is active in this situation.
