I have many files with the same file name in a deep folder structure. Searching for ‘order.html’ using goto anything (cmd+p) can result in showing three files in different directories. If two are already open I want to locate the last one. This is not always easy to spot as I have to read three long directories names to locale the exact file I want. An improvement here would be to indicate files in the search list that are already opened, for example with different background colour, bold text or some indication (*) to make it easier to distinguish between these files.
Indicate open files in goto anything

I like the suggestion - I ended up writing a plugin to act like goto anything but to only show open files because that suited my use case, but it would be nice to have this in core - I guess it could assign a property to the row so the theme can choose how to present the open files.
Note that we generally open issues for feature requests these days rather than using the forum, there is more flexibility to sort by reaction count etc to allow SublimeHQ to better prioritise.
The closest existing request I found was:
But it is different enough to warrant a separate issue IMO
