            Bug ID: 461524
           Summary: "Open containing folder" actions do not work if parent
                    folder is already open
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 22.08.3
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
(this is on X11, not tested on Wayland)

When using the "open containing folder" action from a different program (tested
with VSCodium, Jetbrains IDEs, and Firefox' download notification), the action
only succeeds if none of the parent folders are currently opened within
dolphin, else whichever parent folder is opened will be focused instead.

In other words, "open containing folder" on any file or folder within the
directory /home/naxdy/git/some_project will only succeed properly if none of
the upper level folders are opened within dolphin.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open dolphin and point to /home/[user]
2. Download a file in Firefox (e.g. the HTML of this page)
3. Upon download, select "open containing folder" from the navigation's burger
menu

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin focuses, and if there are multiple tabs, the tab pointing to
/home/[user] will focus, but the containing folder (/home/[user]/Downloads) is
not opened.

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin focuses and a new tab is created, pointing to /home/[user]/Downloads
