Chuan Liu commented on HDFS-4632:
---------------------------------
I tend to agree 1) is the only feasible solution in short term.
Is it possible to only use "file:///path/foo/a/b/c" format for local path? So
we could effectively get rid of forward slash on Windows. I understand this
breaks backward compatibility. But we will have a unified format for paths on
different OS's. Users may be less confused of which format to use. Any thoughts
on this?
> globStatus using backslash for escaping does not work on Windows
