Bug Description

Not sure if this is a feature request or question for help on usage.
I've had a number of tabs open for a long time, and there is one document where I would like to know where it is stored. I know I could use lsof or somesuch, but it would be handy if this information would be accessible in the GUI. I would have expected it in View, Docks, Properties but perhaps it is somewhere else.

Thanks Adam!

Hello Peter,

indeed that information is available in the UI: The tabs themselves have the absolute file path as their tool tip, i.e. hovering the mouse pointer over the tabs should reveal that information.

But since it is admittedly hard to find and also hard to use, e.g. copy and paste is not really an option with the transient pop-ups, I added this and some other file properties to the properties dock in the latest trunk build.

Best regards, Adam.
