You could have the few "best matches" listed separately in the
beginning of the list, followed by the grouping shown today.

What's "best matches"? I suggested using `tag-exact-match-p' in the etags backend. What's your take on this?

- Should xref always try to preserve the order in which xrefs are returned?

No!  This would make the UI even more dependent on the back-ends.

Without using the order, in which matches are returned by the backend, we can't even know what the "best matches" are.

What about the rest of the predicates in `find-tag-tag-order' set by `etags-recognize-tags-table'? Should we disregard all of them?
