Yes, I agree. But the question is if this is an instance of FileUrl:
'dir/file.txt' ?
I don't think so. IMHO a FileUrl has a hostname (or is localhost) and an
absolute path.

Then sure, you can resolve relative paths against it. But I still can't
see that an instance of FileUrl can "be relative or absolute".
