I also don't like the %2f encoding, not so much for this particular

The precedent comes both obviously from URI syntax standards/RFC's, and
in the Solaris context, from pkg(5). ls /var/pkg/pkg on your system
to see lots of existing files with %2F names.
Precedent set, and while it results in ugly looking names, it will work
unambiguously. Lets move on now... (sorry I raised it in the first
place).
(Oh, can you please elaborate whether any other % encodings are used?
At a minimum it sees that % itself must be encoded...)
