Yeah, it was this double-colon approach I was wondering about. I heard some people complaining that it would make a lot of file requester filename-parsing routines croak. It would be nice to avoid making programs blow up. "Popeye:df0" (without the second colon) precludes the name "df0" for directories, too.
