SUMMARY
When opening multiple tabs, or one tab with a large directory path, Dolphin obfuscates the directory name at the END. 
Example:
/home/user/Downloads/Software/Shared/Firefox/
will be obfuscated to:
/home/user/Downloads/Sof...
It should be obfuscated like this
.../Software/Shared/Firefox/
to let the user always know, in which current folder he is right now, and which open tabs are which folder.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin with tabs activated
2. Enter a large folder tree


OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin obfuscates the directory name at the END. 

EXPECTED RESULT
Of course, the user should know which tab shows which directory. Therefore, Dolphin should obfuscate the path of folders at the beginning!

In Dolphin 20.08, this has been changed to only show the name of the folder in the tab title, not the whole path. That effectively implements this, because the folder is the right-most component of the path.
