I would say that %/E is correct for a Level 3 disc, presumably referring
to Interchange Level 3 (section 10.3 of ISO 9660), although the Joliet
document does not make that clear.
In every version of the Joliet document I have seen there is a methodical
inconsistency regarding whether that middle character is / or \ . I vote
for / as being correct because:
1. Fielded discs seem to use it
2. http://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/ISO-IR/2-8-2.htm takes that view.

The Joliet documentation says nulls (00) are to be used (that is, it does
not say anything to change what ISO 9660 has said in this regard). But I
have run into irregularities in Joliet SVDs in this regard, sometimes with
a three character escape sequence followed by two spaces and the rest
nulls.

Joliet says nothing to exempt hierarchies from the requirement to have a
SEPARATOR 2 and File Version Number in every File Identifier. The closest
thing in Joliet is to _permit_ the inclusion of a SEPARATOR 1 and File
Name
Extension in any _Directory_Identifier_.
