Feature Request: Search in file path in Gnome Books

I have lots of ebooks. I want to organise them in Gnome Books. The books have a variety of authors and different topics (some are software books, some are novels, some are game guides). Because the dates, titles and authors all vary so much then all of the books are mixed up in the list.

Ideally, I'd make a collection for novels and a collection for software etc and then be able to access the ones that I want. To do that, I need to pick the software books out from the novels. On disk, they're in separate directories, but Gnome Books abstracts that away and doesn't give access to the path (except when viewing a single book's properties).

It would be useful to be able to search in the file path of books so that I can pick out ones in specific directories to create collections, without manually going through and selecting each book one-by-one.
