I don't agree with the "does not apply" comments. The \\?\ has different
semantics, and having those semantics suddenly shift when the path gets long
will be a surprising change to a user.

My take is that if the user wants \\?\, they should prepend it themselves as a
deliberate action, rather than hiding it in a conventional API. After all, the
Windows functions themselves don't automatically add it, either. If it was
straightforward they would have done it.
