So, we either pretend we use RFC 1738, or we don't? We're dealing with
URLs here, and only half-supporting them is a bad idea.

That said:
        * whilst per-directory is RFC compliant, I can't think of
          cases where it really bites
        * ftp host:/some/path/to/file doesn't have this limitation
