WSL supports to open a WSL file/folder in the windows explorer from the command line. This feature could be used to support the 'Reveal in Explorer' command in the WSL setup.

We would need to add a hook to the Reveal in Explorer command for the mapping of remote-url to drive.

The same hook could be used for a bind-mounted remote container to support this.

You can just write explorer.exe .

@egamma So you would be able to view a file in a container with Explorer/Finder? Did I read that right?

If the folder is in a Windows drive accessed through WSL (/mnt/c, etc) it would be very welcome to have the 'Reveal in Explorer' option.
