Problem
When using the "text" channel to search within files across a directory tree, it can be challenging to make sense of the results because they appear in a random order. Matches from each file are interleaved with results from other files and the line numbers within each file also appear in random order.

Feature
After entering a search phrase when using the "text" channel/mode, it would be nice if the result list would sort or group matches from within the same file. It might also be nice if the matches from the same file were ordered in the same order they appear in the file. Right now I am seeing matches from the same file interleaved with matches from other files.

Additional context
It might also be nice to have a toggle to list each file with matches exactly once in the left side (with the match locations highlighted in the preview text on right) or to list each match as it does now.
