Holy smoke, I've been using MacOS since OS X 10.0 and (I'm embarrassed to
admit) I didn't know about this! It's massively better than my suggestion,
obviously. Any idea how long it's been around?
Just to note, I found another workaround for users of the fantastic utility
Launchbar that doesn't require using the Finder at all. If you call up
Launchbar with your hotkey, typing a few characters unique to your
graphic's filename will bring the filename up in your Launchbar window.
Hitting right-arrow or Ctrl-F will then bring up a list where the second
item is the full pathname for the file, which can be copied to the
clipboard with a Cmd-C.
