If a user is interacting with their config files primarily by the 'git
config' command, using the location flags (--global, --system, etc) then
they may be more interested to see the scope of the config file they are
editing, rather than the filepath.

There's asimilar issue being worked on under Git-for-Windows with some 
proposed code for this very 'problem'
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/2399 and a GitGitGadget PR 
https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/pull/478

cc'ing Matthew to help coordination.
