@Jörgen, Yes your first suggestion I have seen earlier, a long time ago. But it was dismissed because of the lack of space to make visible a complete path if it contains more than one subfolder. Especially on mobile devices.
Your second suggestion I think no one can be against that, but given the fact that a completely overhauled UI is in the making, I don't think it is worth the effort to change the current one.
In short: good suggestions, but probably too late 😉
