While not as nice, there is a way.
right click the fold gutter (assuming you have folding at class-sections
enabled)
The menu will list all parent fold-nodes .
Ideally I would like to add a capability to list this path in the status
bar (instead of the file name).
But that will require some more work, because the fold happens at the
keyword (e.g. procedure) but such a path-info would require the name of
the procedure (easy if it's on the same line, harder if it is on another
line.
