I think so too, especially since I opened up
FU.isAbsolutePath() to public access.  Similarly with
Netware... I have worked with older versions of
Netware, and on those VOLUME:PATH or VOLUME:\PATH are
equivalent but not absolute.  VOLUME: is relative to
the current server.  So SERVER\VOLUME:(\)?PATH is
absolute, as is "driveletter-colon-separator."  Can
anyone update my knowledge of Netware file
specification conventions?

Thanks,
Matt
