Comment (by MattyRob):

 Sorry to report on further testing that this doesn't work fully.

 By returning a sorted list of plugin files the 'first' entry returned may
 not be the main plugin file and it may also not be a file supported in the
 editor - resulting in unusual behaviour.

 The sort needs to return the array with the main file at the start of the
 array or somehow that file needs to be 'selected' by default.
