in repositories with large and cluttered roots, it can be hard to find 
the license, readme, or e.g. go.mod file in an alphabetically-sorted 
listing. of course, one can simply ^F to find the file they need, but 
perhaps it could be useful to highlight them in some way or another.
i know from experience that sometimes my brain can't exactly articulate 
/what/ i'm looking for until i can see it.

- bold/italic filename?
- different color text like there is for directories?
- colored line background?
- some sort of flag next to the permissions/size?

I would prefer not to add heuristics for specific filenames.
