when the search window presents the found mails, sometimes it is handy to see the context in which the found mail was written (e.g. the thread of other realted mails). Therefore a button which allows to "Jump to containing folder" (or "Jump to original folder") would be good, which would change the selected folder in the main kmail window and selects the mail I have selected in the search window. Reproducible: Always

The implementation now has the "Jump to containing folder" option, but the mail I selected is not selected in the folder. See my initial text: "...and selects the mail I have selected in the search window." I now get the folder but I do not see the mail I just clicked on in the search window ... so I have to search for the same mail in that folder again manually ... not good.
