We can just add an item to the file's popup menu which sets the current directory as the file's parent directory.

I've marked this bug as blocking bug #593793; that one is about showing Recent Folders as well as files.

Your suggested "Go to file's location" is very nice!  I'll integrate it soon.

A similar patch is committed now.  Thanks for your version!
