Ah ok, so it's going to do that without me needing to explicitly specify
"Keep"?

Sorry that was me using shorthand to illustrate the problem, the url in the
code is an absolute url stored in a variable with the schema and all the
necessary things.

Yeah that was my intent with the above. How come it doesn't work in the view
for `file:///home/myuser` but it works for `file:///`?
In any case, the code here you provided works great for at least `file:///`
and that gets us quite far. How much of a rework would getting it to work with
subdirectories (like `file:///home/myuser`) take?
