Something which is annoying me every time:
After saving a message to a local .eml file on disk, there's no trace of that in the Saved Files tab (Ctrl+J), and I have to dig again to find that file in my OS file manager although TB knows exactly where it is, and could easily provide a link to that location in the download manager.

Users which regularly save hundreds of messages may not want this, so it should have a pref, probably enabled by default.

For bonus points, we could just create a single entry when multiple selected messages get saved to the same folder (or only list the first N multiple saved messages as individual entries and then add a summary entry for the rest).

The code paths are completely different...
