 I'm not sure what you mean by the "locations you see fit".

 If you mean where should there be ellipses; then the answer is anywhere a
 file name is truncated (at the end of the part of the name which is
 shown).

 So for example, if I have an image called {{{This image has a name which
 is too long to show fully}}, then it would currently be shown as something
 like {{{This image has a name}}}. Instead, it should be {{{This image has
 a name...}}}.

 Alternatively we could do it the OS X way, with the ellipsis in the
 middle. Then it would be something like {{{This image has ... fully}}}.

 I'll do a patch later for the first method; it shouldn't be hard.
