Speaking for myself, yes: the arch namespace makes sense to me like this.
In my mind the -- could be as easily exchanged for : / or any number of
characters, the important thing is the (location)(item)(path) syntax.

But to bring up a chestnut: where is address@hidden published? It's
infuriating having the archive identifier but no way to map it to a physical
location ...

NB- yes, I can get it from aderuwe's mirror, but that doesn't help me find
the canonical source any more. Alexander, can you please bring back the
page which displayed the original URLs?
