Turns out, I'm slightly wrong.

The ClearCase separator is actually '@@/'

(but I've always thought of the / as being part of the revision
itself, as opposed to being part of the separator.

So in ClearCase you _can_ have a file named foo@@bar@@baz, if you so
desire,

To get to the fifteenth version of that file (on the main branch)
you'd refer to:
    foo@@bar@@baz@@/main/15
