We could add a button or context menu "Copy path"

@xPoppyx I'm kind of divided on this because the full path can be useful for some users.

We can technically provide a feature flag for this, I am in favor of just showing the path since the file name is already displayed but this should be left up for discussion.

What about a "show full path" button when hovering over it?

We could add a button or context menu "Copy path"

We can create an option in settings whether to show complete path or the directory of the file. That would also be useful

Changes to resolve this issue will roll out with the next update.
