chrome appearing in wrong place

SUMMARY

When I search "chr" in krunner, 100% of the time I click on the Google Chrome application. However, this is 11 items down in my krunner results for this search, meaning that clicking with the mouse is quicker than selecting with the keyboard.

I should be able to type "chr <enter>" and open the item that I opened by choice previously from this search. That means that not only items but also sections should be sorted by recency. Maybe this is an option.

If you don't want to do this, then at least krunner plugins should be sortable by the user. In my case, 99.9% of the time I am opening an application. I like that I can search other stuff, and don't really want to turn all of the other plugins off - but I would certainly set applications to show first.
