Description

### Description

At the moment, every file selected in the project view is automatically revealed in the workspace view. There should be a setting option to enable/disable this behavior.

### Use case/motivation

In projects where the Workspace view is used for overview of other data, the default behavior can be confusing and eventually annoying.
