--- Comment #4 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> ---
Please note the interoperability issues with Windows shares (SMB). On Windows,
a path like \\server\share\path\file.ext translates to URL like
file://server/share/path/file.exe; and the share is anything in the server's
filesystem that made shared, most often not at any drive root, and possibly
named differently than underlying filesystem directory - so in general,
accessing \\localhost\share\path\file.ext, you are in reality accessing
d:\mydir\someotherdir\shareddir\path\file.ext.

Given that file references in documents may be stored using both native path
and URLs, it's essential that LO treats file URLs created on Windows properly
when opened on, say, Linux. So some really clever solution required here.
