This is one thing that's always annoyed me with Quicksilver. I often get 
the most ridiculous results when Quicksilver searches the entire path 
instead of just the file name. 

For example, attached is one search where I type "ORB" looking for 
/Applications/Orbis.app. Pretty simple, right, but I get a whole bunch of 
much weaker matches I'm guessing because the "o" "r" and "b" can be found 
in the full paths before the Orbis.app even though it is obvious these 
other results are far worse matches. 

For example: 

~/Google Drive/My Stuff/www/blog/wp-content/upgrade/wordbook/wordbook/

 
shows up before

/Applications/*Orb*is.app


Anyone can see this is not right. And this is one of the better examples, 
often I have to scroll pages and pages because of this rule but I can't 
show that in a screenshot. 

How can w*or*d*b*ook come before *Orb*is.app? Even if you consider the path 
the 'orb' is spread out and if you add up their total locations they are 
further down than the orb in Orbis. It makes no sense for me. Is there any 
tweak I can do do the search to make it search more rationally?
