Description
Something I miss in applications don't have it is a file context address bar.
The 'filename button' is serves the same role, but it hides the path which is undesirable.
Having a file context address bar would remove the need for extra wide tabs when you have long filenames or you have two files with the same name but on different paths
e.g. (from xcode)

Research direction
Start by locating the existing filename button and the file-context UI described in the issue, using the screenshots as the visual reference. Determine how the current path is represented, then make the full file path visible in a dedicated address-bar-style control without requiring wider tabs; done means distinct same-named files remain distinguishable.
