Dunno. Don't you think it will be extra clutter in breadcrumb line?

What is your suggested use case?

By my opinion, breadcrumbs need for fast navigation in content.

In my experience it's very important orientate in data location, for example - big (10k lines) file with configuration information about system. Unfortunately, not for all data format developed specialized viewers.

Seems that this is ideal: 1) Show full path of current line 2) Ability to copy this path 3) Comboboxes on each path item for navigation by siblings.

Display of index may be separate parameter in settings.
