I forgot that, you're right.
Proposition (Under the hypothesis that polytyped interface are choosen) :
If a path to a file contain a non-default branch-translator, the branching
must be specified by appending to the node the translator that have to be
use. Ex: "foo.tar.gz:gzip_tr/setup.exe"
This make paths globals and unambiguous.
I don't realize the implementation consequences, but under assumption that
most file are regular (ie. have only one possible translator) and most path
are implicitly unambiguous (ex: foo.tar.gz/setup.exe implicitly call a
dir_capable translator over foo.tar.gz, if there is only one dir_capable
translator over the file , there is no ambiguity), i think it's not
impraticable, isn't it ?
