Apart from that, I'm curious about an example where simply
dropping the local host component (which is done in case it's
empty already for file:///..., or probably would have to done if
it's valid) would lead to a different or dangerous result, not
from a puristic, but practical Hg point of view. The resulting
path is checked for validity. So could there happen anything
worse than what happens now, in case you give an invalid path?
