Michael Dürig commented on OAK-426:
-----------------------------------
I changed this to "new feature" since currently {{TreeLocation}} works as
specified: "A relative path consists of a possibly empty lists of names
separated by forward slashes". Both "." and ".." are valid names for items in
{{Tree}}.
However, any additional semantics of paths strings would better be handled
above this layer since {{TreeLocation}} already provides sufficient means for
navigating trees without having to rely on a certain interpretation of a
string.
