I'm running into more problems with .sparsebundle disk image files.

For the past couple of hours, I have been trying to discover why a handler that unmounts a .dmg or .sparseimage disk wold not work for a .sparsebundle file. Finally, I discovered that ...

The POSIX path for a .dmg file ends with ".dmg"; and
The POSIX path for a .sparseimage file ends with ". sparseimage"; but
The POSIX path for a .sparsebundle file ends with ". sparsebundle/".

(My problem is easily corrected by adding one line of code that removes the last char of the path if it = /".)

This is probably correct, since a bundle is a folder. But it's unexpected.

As a more general question:
I wonder if anyone else has encountered other problems with sparsebundle files?
