The above description does not mention that the relative URL in
question is "../otherpath".  Anyway, I think it's a great idea; thanks
for doing it!

What happens to

	url = ssh://example.com:1234
	url = ftp://ftp.example.com
	url = /local/path/with/a/colon:in:it
	url = git://example.com/path/with/a/colon:in:it

	url = simple.subdir.of.cwd

?  (Not a rhetorical question; I'm only curious.  If the ftp example
is valid then the existing code already would not cope well with it.)
