Summary:
The ability to open an applications install directory from iOS simulator via a menu item in the menu bar is much needed for those writing apps that make use of the install directory folders.

Steps to Reproduce:
Currently there is no facility provided in either Xcode or the iOS simulator. Instead you have to log the documents path out to the console:

NSLog(@"%@", [NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES) lastObject]);

 and copy the file path from there and open that path with finder.

Expected Results:
That there would be a much simpler/faster one-click solution to opening the install location for apps in the simulator.

Actual Results:
There is no such facility.

Notes:
This would be very much appreciated.
