SUMMARY

Please support the FileManager1 D-Bus API for revealing downloaded files in the file manager.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download a file
2. Open the downloads window
3. There should be a way to "show in file manager"

OBSERVED RESULT
Double-clicking a downloaded file opens it, but does not show it in the file manager. Right-clicking and using the context menu shows the folder containing the file, but does not highlight (select) the downloaded file.

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a way to show the downloaded file in the file manager (not only opening the containing folder but also selecting/highlighting the file). This can be done using org.freedesktop.FileManager1 ShowItems (e.g., Chromium is using this). https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/file-manager-interface/
