Agreed. I was simply digging in because I wasn't able to NULL as the
ancestor_path. So I wanted to see what was happening :-)

[Part of] the problem would be solved if I didn't have to pass
ancestor_path. The WC would simply be constructing the associated URL by
composing the NAME parameters. Right now, we're getting confused about the
meaing and usage of ancestor_path. Some of my other emails were an attempt
to clarify the true purpose/meaning/usage of that parameter. (I'd like to
call it copyfrom_path and copyfrom_revision to signify and limit its
purpose).
