I've made a couple improvements:

- new option to disable exact start match (searches case insensitive sub 
string)
- free functions show different icon than member functions
- aliases show other icon than variables
- without any match, still keep the completion box open to update when 
deleting the last character
- new sorting mode "by declaration", effectively sorting by scope as 
discovered by the semantic engine.

The last item more or less does what you requested for classes, though 
it doesn't sort the variables or functions per scope. It also prefers 
function local variables over class members or globals.
