Including the original path to a file that was deleted.
It would make it easier to identify what files need to be restored if the original full path of the file was included in the trash folder and that information could be used in a sort/search.

Whilst the new Content manager displays the folder path, it does not allow a filter on or sort by, therefore co-admins have to a) run an appropriate user activity report, b) sort by parent folder, c) identify and filter by folder, d) restore the folders first, then e) filter by file, and f) restore the files --- preferably using Box CLI commands

Whilst Box developers have conceeded that this information is needed, and included it below other details in the new Content Manager, this is not sufficient.
You cannot interact/sort/filter by this information, something that is CRUCIAL for Box Co-Admins when restoring content deleted by other users.
Instead, we have to run appropriate User Activity Reports, filter on rows re folders, restore the folders in the correct order, then filter on files, and restore those ... for a particular path
Come on Box, do the job properly :)
