Sometimes, it's better to go outside of eclipse to perform some tasks on files of a project (copy, backup elsewhere, modify a csv, etc ...).

The contextual menu "Show In" of a project seems to fit for an "System Explorer" to go directly in the right folder of the workspace without wasting time browsing the drive.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Launch Eclipse
2.right click on an open project
3.No choice for opening the system file explorer
