ASSET-LINK - enable opening the asset shown/used/worked on in PS, IA, ID etc. directly in AEM

Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: When using asset-link, I can search for and use assets out of AEM directly in Creative Cloud Applications. 
But when I found an asset, I might want to check it's metadata, or check the folder it's in for other assets, and such. The asset-link UI is not good for such activities, and cannot do them.

As such, it would be great to be able to directly open the asset directly in AEM - using the information asset-link already has to open the asset in the browser in AEM-ASSETS.

Searching though cloudmanager for the right environment, then searching for the right asset inside of AEM is cumbersum and error-prone.
Use-case:
  • check/edit metadata of files used in asset-link
  • review the folder the asset used in asset-link is in
  • preview the edited  asset in AEM with renditions etc. 
  • preview the edited asset in the experience the asset is for (website, etc.) 
Current/Experienced Behavior: The asset cannot be opened in AEM using asset-link
Improved/Expected Behavior: Being able to open the asset in AEM ASSETS in the browser directly from asset link.
Environment Details (AEM version/service pack, any other specifics if applicable): all AEM versions, but especially Cloud Services.
Customer-name/Organization name: Adobe
