Hi @ITJamie,

although I don't really dislike your idea: Have you seen the link in the device section (upper left)? There's a row named "Rack" which provides two links: One textual link to open the rack and one graphical link to open the rack and highlight the device you came from. Seems to be sufficient to me.

When on a mobile device its quite a jump around to find that field. While looking at the rack view on a device page it would be useful to be able to quickly see what rack it is in without having to find another box entirely.
