Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When browsing through directories, you see files and sub-directories. With a click on ... you can select "Edit locally" / "Lokal bearbeiten", and then it opens on your local desktop. Fine. BUT you can only click "Edit locally" only for sub-directories you see, NOT FOR THE DIRECTORY you are currently in. But this would be crucial, as other software might link to a directory, users click on it, Nextcloud opens and shows that directory. If that user then wants to continue locally on the desktop, he would need to browse to parent folder, then search for the directory there, and then click "Edit locally"

Describe the solution you'd like
Show the menu item "Edit locally" also for the directory you are current viewing. Not sure where this is best placed, if in the Sharing tab, or in the ... menu at top (very hard to find).

None

Additional context
This is important when e.g. you link to a project folder in a chat, another chat user opens the link, the directory then shows in browser, and then he wants to continue working in his local Windows explorer to work on files. Now he is stuck to the very complexing clicking to parent to open that directory locally.
