--- Comment #4 from Adalbert.Hanssen at gmx.de ---
alexxcons, thank you for your explanation. I would not have seen this use case
without your explanation. However, in your very special situation these links
could only be used by the workgroup from the computers in that workgroup -
which also might be desired or not.

You are right, it would be best to have two choices:

a) to ask for the UIC path, i.e. the absolute path -  or alternatively
b) to ask for the symlink

and in addition there should be a description, when a) or b) is the better
choice (and a warning, that the UIC path is unique only in the absence of
multiple mounting branches of the folder tree.
