-----------------------------------------------------------------
The URI for a connector is not arbitrary. You are supposed to be able to get
the original file back by loading the URI that is indexed by the connector.
The new form of URI does not look functional in this way.
One way to get around this issue would be to pretend that you had a web server
which was capable of serving the files. You don't actually have to have such a
web server, but you might be able to use that as a model. For example, when
you set up the file connection, you might have a "Web server" tab, that would
allow you to configure part of the URL instead, such as "http://localhost:123";.
Then, if that is set, all files indexed would be prefixed with
"http://localhost:123/"; instead of "file:".
Also, in my opinion, this configuration information definitely belongs as part
of the process of setting up a file connection, not setting up a file job. The
version information for a file would have to contain the URI prefix in addition
to its current contents, in order for the incremental crawling to work
correctly if the Web Server prefix were to change.
