Eek, you're right, that's pretty weird/bad. I didn't look into it that
far.

Or perhaps better (and simpler) would be to store them as FSRefs. After
all, that's what you the code already starts with in
CAFileChooser::SimpleReceiveDrag(), and then it gets converted
(unsuccessfully) back to an FSRef later on when it actually needs to be
used, so it seems silly to not just keep it as an FSRef all the time (and
FSRefs don't have the maximum path length limitations that CFURLRefs
unfortunately have).
