[mini.pick] Is it possible to get the file name at the start?

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to get the file names first and have the directories come after for Pick files?

This should be possible by overriding source.show() for picker you want this behavior (presumably, builtin.files).
However, I think it will be a tough challenge to do while preserving all features of default_show(). Primarily, adding icons and current/match/marked highlighting.

As I think showing matched characters is really important and having file name first makes it at least very complex, I don't think this will be made built-in or showed here in full capability. Here is an example of how the backbone can look like:

local show_filename_first = function(buf_id, item_arr, query)
  local lines = {}
  for i, item in ipairs(item_arr) do
    local directory, basename = vim.fs.dirname(item), vim.fs.basename(item)
    lines[i] = string.format('%s (%s)', basename, directory)
  end
  vim.api.nvim_buf_set_lines(buf_id, 0, -1, false, lines)
end
MiniPick.registry.files_2 = function() MiniPick.builtin.files({}, { source = { show = show_filename_first } }) end

You can then use it with :Pick files_2.

Alright, thanks for your help :)
