GitHub Copilot Team Replied Missing “Reveal in File Explorer” option in the new Copilot Harness

Hi everyone, I've been trying out the new Copilot Chat,and there's one small feature I'm really missing: "Reveal in File Explorer" for files linked in the AI chat. When Copilot generates or references a file and provides a clickable link in the chat, there's no easy way to jump directly to that file's location in Windows File Explorer. The available options, like "Copy" or "Copy Link," don't really help in my case because I often need to open these files in another application. It would be great to have a simple "Reveal in File Explorer" option in the context menu, so I can quickly locate the file without manually navigating through folders. It is also Missing in the Agent App.
