I'm not sure why you think it's not, but regardless, I can confirm the bug. Michael: any chance you could fix this for beta 4/final, since you fixed bug 391980?

I think that's insuficcient. Whether or not file managers handle something like... "/home/rrae/Downloads/somefile.tar.bz2" ... in a way as it is in Explorer is out of scope for this bug report, imho Firefox should do a first step in this direction.

Basically, if the user right clicks on a file in the Downloads of Firefox and selects "Open Containing Folder", Nautilus should open with the file highlighted to make the file easier to find. 1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System -> About Ubuntu. Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Release: 10.04 2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy packagename' or by checking in Synaptic.
