Description

When you right click on a tab, "Reveal in Finder" appears. I've clicked on it in a previous version of code server and it opened the file in its own folder without allowing me to get out of the folder. I just tested it, and it appears to just refresh the window and do nothing else. This isn't super crucial, but it doesn't seem like it should exist on a remote browser since finder should not be able to open the file at all.

I personally think that option should just be removed since it is possible for users to accidentally click it, and it is confusing.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open any file in Code Server
  2. Right click the tab and click on the "Open in finder" dialog
