Unfortunately java.nio.file.Path is platform-dependent, so a URI path a/b/c may be represented on windows as a\b\c, which may cause unexpected issues when concatenating.

Investigate a platform-independent alternatives.

Please notice URI has its own downsides/caveats; e.g.

• URI.create("/a").append("b") returns /b
• Does not have a get(idx) method
• Does not have a getParent() method

etc.
