never realized but \ will take you to the first Drive/directory or File

so if you're alpha sort on Name, & directories are all listed first,
instead of doing something like a* (to get /close/ to the first /file/),
you can just hit \ & you'll jump to the first file, be it an 'a' or '999' or even ' (literally)
(and \ again, will take you back to the first Drive/directory)

In short:
Press \ in the result list to jump between the first file/folder.

I use it all the time, not sure how I could make it more well known..

There's also Ctrl + G to go to the first file/folder.
Maybe a hint in the go to dialog:
Press \ in the result list to jump between the first file/folder.
