Reveal in Finder Timeline Shortcut

I can CTRL+click a clip in the timeline and choose Reveal in Finder, but I can't seem to map it as a shortcut. In fact, it appears I can only map as a shortcut Reveal in Finder from a Project or Bin panel. How come? Or am I missing something?

Why I care: I've got several clips in my show that I need to transcode in Media Encoder, I only want to do the ones I'm currently working with, I'd like to find them in the timeline and press one key to reveal them outside the project. As is, I either have to ctrl+click the clip and find Reveal in Finder or make sure the clip is highlighted in the timeline, Match Frame it back to the Source window, Reveal in Project and, only then, Reveal in Finder.

Just curious I see an application shortcut in 2024 for reveal in explorer that works from the timeline for a selected clip. But no reveal in finder? The reveal in explorer was in PR2020, but I can't open my copy of 2019 and it wasn't in CS6.

@Ben Clayton I moved this thread to the Ideas section, so hopefully it will gain some traction. 🙂

As i wrote earlier, i have been told that commands that exists in menues are easy for the programmers to add to the keyboard shotcuts.

I cannot assign that keyboard shortcut on Windows either, in this case to Reveal in Explorer, so it seems to have been forgotten by the team for those that want to use it on clips on the timeline. I was told once that commands that exists in menues are easy for the team to add to the keyboard shortcuts.
