Path! syntax and file! syntax clash

[Siskin-Bot]

Submitted by: Ladislav

Below is an example of a path! and file! syntax "clash". I guess that the behaviour looks intended and useful, the only thing that may be missing is a bit of documentation.

This is related to #2089.

>> to block! 'a/%b/c
== [a %b/c]
>> to block! 'a/%"b"/c
== [a %b c]

I get the following result for the second case:

>> to block! 'a/%"b"/c
== [a %b c]

Thanks for the info, now it looks to me that the behaviour you describe is actually optimal and I do like it. I also probably messed up my tests.
