I'll send through a cleanup patch for this.

I did that initially, but wasn't happy with the result.
I think the best way forward would be to move the path handling into the
generic code path, and then have shadow-copy VFS modules only provide
hooks to convert a @GMT/timewarp path to a snapshot path and vice-versa.

Also fixed with subsequent cleanup patch.

Thanks for the feedback!
