mcedit: status line no longer shows full path to file

Description

As reported in Debian

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=764226

mcedit used to print the full path of the current file in the status bar.
In new version of MC (4.8.13), this is unfortunately no longer the case.
(mcview still shows the full path).

I agree with reporter that it is more convenient to see full path in mcedit and that it is nice when such behaviour is in line with mcview. Please revert.

The following (untested) patch was proposed:

Look at #3445. Cheers.

I see, thanks. Perhaps defaults are badly chosen as mcview shows full path while mcedit is not. It would be better to preserve classic, consistent presentation instead of flipping it back and forth over last 3 releases. Also, I'd prefer accessing this configuration option from menu.
