I didn't know you could do that. What would you call that type of
reference?
fsspec is to file "path:to:file" as
_____ is to folder (alias "path:to:folder:") ??
Perhaps just use 'alias "accent:foo"' since that coerces to item or
folder
in the Finder? Or does that error as well?
It's not really a coercion, but yes, that works too. (For some
definition of "works" -- trying it out a bit more, I see that there are
funky problems with composed vs. decomposed characters.)
