Speaking about quickopen. May we also have pattern matching back? ;) 
Seriously, I can't imagine myself working with a quickopen without pattern 
matching.

My usecases for it:
1) two files with the same name in two different directories:
	dir1*filename
This is especially needed for ruby/rails projects when you end up having tons 
of files with the same name.

2) method names (especially test methods)
	foo*bar
	test*foo

If you think pattern matching is slow for general usage, let's turn it on only 
when the search string contains * or ? chars. I do want to pay any penalty to 
get pattern matching ;)
