The title of this idea should be changed to: "Show not only in which Group a record resides but the full nested path to it."

@ pwSafe User: yes, I'd like to see the path to the entry. I use version 8.2.4 on an iPhone running iOS 9.3.1. In pwSafe settings, Group Layout is not set to Flat but to Automatic.
When viewing a record, I'm only informed of in which "Group" the record resides. In my case the group name is "Chat Services." However, this group is nested in a "Group" named "Telecom & Chat." When I navigate to this group I have to tap on "Subgroups" to get to the group "Chat Services."
I have therefore 2 issues:
1. Semantics: The terms Group and Subgroup are not used in a strict way across the board.
2. Location info: Even if I understand from experience that what is displayed as "Group" is actually a "Subgroup" (in my case) it still won't be easy to guess in which "Group" (meaning root group) my item lives.
I have 997 records and nearly all of them live in Subgroups. I suggest to display not only the "Group" OR "Subgroup" my record is stored in, but to show the full "file path" so to speak. Then the label "Group" for that information would be OK and both of my issues would be resolved.
As to why it's useful to know the location of a record, please refer to my initial post.
The solution to set all to a Flat view defeats (in my case with nearly 1000 records) the purpose of subgroups when looking for a record when not knowing the title – the list would be too long (I have many groups and subgroups)

Example: I'm on my iPad and do a search in pwSafe. I have several accounts with an online service and I add a number suffix to the title, like Twitter-1, Twitter-2, etc. I find the entries when searching for the term Twitter and see that I have, for example 3 accounts with Twitter. Now I want to set up a 4th account next to the others but don't find where the others are because they are in subgroups and I cannot see to which subgroup to go.

@pwSafe User: I like your idea to be able to create a new duplicate entry from an entry that was just found.
Another related idea would be to have the ability to jump to the entry in it's organized context, like "Reveal in list" or so. That would be useful when you want to see what else is in that Group/Subgroup already.
