Title:
  The "Open containing folder" option in Firefox download window does
  not make nautilus highlight the downloaded file in that directory

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Windows, when you select "Open containing folder" from the firefox
  Downloads window, the directory is opened with the downloaded file
  auto-selected. This doesn't happen in ubuntu, and causes users a
  headache to find the downloaded file. Based on this thread it seems to
  be a firefox problem:
