Symlinks can serve both purposes, keeping the original path and simplifying the code.
I will incorporate this in the subsequent patches.

The extensive changes in RFC v1 indeed made it challenging to read.
Thank you very much for your patience. In RFC v2, I only wrote the

I've carefully considered your and Steffen's feedback,
which will be addressed in RFC v3.

Thanks.
