Actual result
If you add a background image to an HTML module like in the following example:
After you save it, there is no way for a normal user to see the image name that is added because the entire route doesn't fit in the field as you can see in the snapshot:
So the only way to know the name of the current image is to check in firebug.
Expected result
I don't know what possibilities do we have to improve this field. But maybe we could enhance the tooltip adding there the path and the image name a part from the thumbnail preview:
System information (as much as possible)
MacOS Mavericks with Google Chrome 33

@brianteeman I have added a UX label. Maybe we can start collecting some UX improvements like this for future sprints.
Kinda nice if this could be fixed, perhaps the input field could have its own tooltip showing the entire path.
An other nice addition would also be a smaller previewWidth and previewHeight, so the images don't exceed the tooltip div.

Sorry for off topic. Would somebody give me a hint if a remark "Needs JoomlaCode Tracker Item" is a must in this case. Thx!
