Hi Magnus,
Excerpts from Magnus Therning's message of Fri Sep 07 00:37:21 -0700 2007:

Thanks for the patch! What about modifying this slightly so that the
~-expansion is done at the string level instead of the URI level, in a
method called Source#expand_filesystem_uri or something. Then Maildir
and MBox::Loader sticks the output of that method into URI.
I think that change will solve two problems: it will make clear that the
expansion method is filesystem-specific (i.e. even though the method is
in Source, only filesystem sources want to call it), and it will allow
us to support URIs the "right way", without the weird #opaque stuff and
without dropping all mbox:// and maildir:// URLs. What do you think?
