Add "File Name" Column to Object Table Member List

I would like a "File Name" added to the object table member view.


Use Case:

When viewing source members in a library it is possible for two source members to share the same name. It would be nice to have available a column for "File Name"

    This feature is now available in the IBM Rational Developer for Power Systems Software V8.5 product.
    For details, please see the product Web site at:
    http://www.ibm.com/software/rational/products/rdp/

    By default for members, their names, types, attributes, and text descriptions are displayed in the object table member view. Now you can add File to the list of selected columns as follows:

    1) Select to view all available columns for the Object Table view, by clicking the drop-down menu (down arrow at the top right) from the view and select Show columns -> All.
    or
    2) Change the preferences for the Object Table view to create a customized view, by clicking the drop-down menu (down arrow at the top right) from the view and select Preferences. Select File from the available columns and move it to the Selected columns. Click OK.
    Now you can select to view customized columns for the Object Table view, by clicking the drop-down menu (down arrow at the to right) from the view and select Show columns -> Customized.
