Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The new search in Nextcloud 32 is great for files.
However, you now return very similar names, and it is very difficult to know which files you are actually looking for.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to see the location of the file to know which file is where to know more of the context.
Some solution that i would consider
Maybe a tooltip on hoover/ the location of the file in an extra column / automatic tagging with location /
Describe alternatives you've considered
=> Reduce duplicating files on insert as attachement
