I agree, but what about pandora and the other file functions like unlink()
etc.? :)
They currently do not prevent such long and prefixed paths...
And to my mind it is ok to let the user open the box (a little?) when he is
doing so on purpose.

Unfortunately mouting directories is too unflexible for our use case...
Furthermore we only need to read files, and that's the only function
currently not allowing the prefix workaround :(
