:vimgrep was made to find matches and skip non-matches, it hasn't been
used for using a match score. Thus I think that's how it should keep
working by default.
In some cases the sorting by score could be useful. Can we sort after
:vimgrep has finished? Or would it need to be another flag or extra
flag?
