Open preset folder in browser when focusing e.g a plugin,mixer,automation[...]

A small feature that imo could have a pretty big benefit to many users:

Instead of going menu diving when searching for presets (for example when changing mixer presets you have to click mixer options, then file and then search for the preset),
it would be great if there was an option to have the corresponding folder with these presets automatically opened in the browser, whenever the mixer or an plugin ( or whatever) is focused.

Now this would be annoying if you just want to have your samples on your main browser page (like many do), but since there are multiple tabs in the browser, this could easily be done on a different page.

So lets say you want to change your mixer preset, you would just focus your mixer, go to the second browser tab and it would automatically have opened the "Mixer presets" folder, and then you could just start dragging it on to the mixer channels as you wish.
This would function the same way for automation(new automation window->envelopes folder) or plugins(plugin presets) or the piano roll (scores).

Let me know what you think about such a feature :D

Edit: Just another Idea i had : Having all these presets for (plugin, mixer, automation, etc) show up (in a corresponding category) in the picker that you access with F8 would also be neat, that way you could also search for them or just drag them on to stuff
