Finding clip in timeline FROM Event Browser

Finding clip in timeline FROM Event Browser was created by Barryg
Hello.
I know how to right click on a clip in the timeline to find it in the event browser. But how do you go the other way? If you are in the Event Browser, how can you find the clip in the timeline?
Of course I know, that I can right click and reveal in photos. Then double-click on the resulting image to shrink it. Then right click and select info. This will give me the number or name of the clip. Then I can go search for it in the timeline index.
But this seems like a lot of work. Isn't there an easier way.?

Do a search in the timeline index. Copy the name from the browser and paste it the search box.

Yes, that's what I suggested to the same question over on apple's site. Except for the search box, forgot about that. It's cool.

Hit the feedback form. I run into this almost daily. I can use parts of the same clip in 3-4 different Project timelines. If I want to know what was used where, I have to manually search the Index of each Project. Should be listed in the Inspector, you'd think. Legacy FCP did this.
