Unnecessarily difficult to find suppressed file from Check-in error

Unnecessarily difficult to find suppressed file from Check-in error

When a user tries to check in an assembly where somewhere in the tree there is at least one file that they've checked out, but which is currently suppressed, they get this error window:

It is unnecessarily difficult to figure out which files these are. The user is given the file names, but not the Item Name or the path to the file in the feature tree. What's really annoying is that the window does not allow for the text to be selected so there's no way to run a search for the file without manually transcribing the filename. 

 

Potential improvements for this experience: 

- Allow text selection and copying from this window. Or even just export the text to a new Notepad window so it can be referenced and copied from

- Give the tree path, item name or something more descriptive than the meaningless filename

- Offer a method to open the offending assembly file containing the suppressed file directly

Oh and another thing: It should be easy to detect prevent duplicates from being shown in the error window like is shown in my screenshot. Listing the filename 6 times is confusing - is it trying to tell me there's 6 instances of the suppressed file? If so, just write something like "x6 instances found"
