The annoying part is that now that '-' stands for '/', you need to use '\x2d' for '-'. Which is pretty annoying when manipulating mount names during the shell.

I wish they had picked ':' for '/' instead of '-'. That one would be pretty uncommon to find in a mount path, and has a bit of precedent on OSX.
(Who would ever mount anything on a path with a colon anyway? That would be as silly as using slashes instead of dashes for options)

- unilynx 5y agoI’m pretty sure whoever came up with that was also using slashes for options. Someone was gonna bite :)
