I can see that (although I think can be argued this is correct as well -
a path with a filename is still a location). I was copying the language
used elsewhere... but from where is eluding my search at the moment. RP
has pulled these already I believe, so if the language here truly
bothers you, we can address it in a follow-on. Personally I don't think
it's really worth the trouble.
