[Bug 1468078] [NEW] after entering path where to open file user has no idea which directory he_she is in

 

Public bug reported:

The path needs to be displayed at all times (there's no case where the
user wants to be lost in an unknown directory). If entering the path
fails, there seems to be a fallback which can't be determined, i.e. the
user needs to guess from the directory structure or use `gedit` on the
command line for certain pathes exclusively.
