I apologize if you got a bad "tone" from my ascii text; tragically ascii
is devoid of any extra cues other than the words and no negatiive tone
was intended.

Regarding bug hunting, I *had* hunted for the same sort of bugs.  I
chased down a similar bug earlier in gnumeric a year or two ago.  The
problem there was that the colon was causing the url identifier to
believe that the file is a url of "<pathuptocolon>:<stuffaftercolon".

The same is the case here.  forcing a file:// url works regarless of
colon.  The bug is triggered on colon, and that's what I searched for.

Now I'll go post most of this on the other bug.
