Ability to reveal file or folder in the OS file browser from the Blender File View right-click menu

As shown in the image below it seems that this feature isn't currently available. I don't necessarily feel this one needs too much justification as it's a pretty standard thing to find in applications. That said, for the skeptics, I'll give a few examples such as the need one may have to copy, paste files and folders, open a terminal, run Git or Perforce actions, or really any other right-click action that is integrated into the OS file browser and cannot be reflected in the Blender one.

I am not sure to understand your proposal. Do you mean for example, there's a picture file data in the outliner or an asset in the asset browser, and you want to be able to do right click → show in file explorer ?
