OK, were editing a file and we want to insert this other file we just
made but forgot the name of, but not to worry, it's in the current
directory:

C-x i tab tab tab tab tab tab tab

there we go, plowing thru lots of names [were in $HOME, and first we
see the dot files, etc. etc. snore] in the scrolling *Completions*
buffer.

However, if they were time ordered, not alphabetically, I would know
the answer at first glance.  Yes, not every time we want date over
alphabetically, but at least there should be some toggle key...
