Yes, I also thought about that.  (I thought about "from", but "in" might be 
even better.)

Then again, I think that the uniquify-like way could be even better:

Instead of

hans.jpg [in /var/lib/httpd/localhost/htdocs/private_homepage]
hans.jpg [in /home/hans/WWW/private_homepage/sources]
about_me.html [in /var/lib/httpd/localhost/htdocs/private_homepage]
about_me.html [in /home/hans/WWW/sources/private_homepage]
cvs2svn.sh [in /home/hans/bin]
cvs2svn.sh [in http://cvs2svn.tigris.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/8]

that would be:

hans.jpg [in private_homepage]
hans.jpg [in sources]
about_me.html [in htdocs/private_homepage]
about_me.html [in sources/private_homepage]
cvs2svn.sh [in bin]
cvs2svn.sh [in 8]

(With additional tooltips showing the full URL.)

I purposely added a "bad" example (the cvs2svn.sh with only "8") - one could 
of course add a constraint like "the path should have min. 8 chars.

Yes, I know this part is not easy to implement, but such things will never be 
implemented if noone brings up the idea/need.
