The only thing that requires a little care (IIUC) is to make sure that if the
tilde is followed by a backslash, the latter is a "true" backslash and not an
"escaper" backslash for something else than a backslash: in ~\foo, ~ means
$HOME while in ~\ foo it doesn't, and the filename is "~ foo". But maybe I'm
overcomplexifying.

Vim-for-Cygwin is a Unix-like build, the shell handles the tilde. This thread
is only busy with native-window at this point.
