Description bzb.dev001 2008-11-17 04:22:08 UTC 
When a listing of search results is shown.  Currently, the user can see where the item is actually located only by right clicking the mouse on the item and selecting 'property' menu item. But there is no way to quickly go to the containing folder.

It would be more convenient if the user can right click on the item, see the floating menu containing a 'go to containing folder' or 'reveal in folder' menu item.  When the user clicks on it, a new folder or same folder (depending on the nautilus configuration) shows the containing folder with the item in question automatically highlighted.
