Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

I got two documents like "ReadMe" in two differents folders
When looking for them doing Super-Key and typing "ReadMe" I got the two documents but I can't distinguish them because the folder is neither shown directly nor placing the mouse over the result.

WorkAround:
1/ knowing the name of a folder may help to find only one if you don't search for a document that may be in the top folder. Howeve the whole folder name should be type if it's the first word searched for.
2/ knowing the way Unity sorts the result help to chose the correct one.

This is actually a regression from Maverick where it looked like in the attachment. The containing folder was named and you could click the name to open the containing folder.
