FTP access also more often reflected the actual file hierarchy of the
machine, so trying that path as a system path is more likely to work
that I'd expect to see for HTTP.

Really, I'd expect any non-local file: URLs to be kicked back to the
application, and let it decide to re-write if it wants to.
