I encounter this regularly on upload, but it is likely happening in other contexts. When you specify a string to filter on, the suggested values are results of fulltext search ordered alphabeticaly even if you have an exact match. Two examples below

Finally found @jmchilton's #16564, this should be a good compromise for nonsense values like fastq, csfasta and so on, we just need to extend the values.

This is probably more used then the set all box, at least that's the case for me personally.
