I agree with Kai's idea that URL type names would be good.
However, if you have to change to non-colons for now, that would also
solve the problem I'm seeing on NT (where colon has one of two special
meanings in a pathname, depending on where it is in the pathname)
Is this a general design flaw in the filehandling code in emacs? If so,
do you think we could make a case to the powers-that-be that it would be
really useful to us (and possibly others in the future) to fix it?
(have to admit, I don't fully grok the cause of the issue you're seeing
with EFS)
