Hi Djoerd, I can understand your concerns, and we are thinking about a solution that provides consistency. More later.
If you have not yet understood the problem, it is the following: the files that may be found in the www file-tree served out by the HTTP server have names that potentially clash with document names.

Surely, you can find some way to serve files with any name through http?
