(At least, in the 2nd case you can just say '#foo' to be shorter.)

But I think both should work; it should convert it into a Node
appropriately.  Remember, all commands are executed from top level
(unless you use chdir=1; if that's your use case then yeah I can see
why you'd need your solution.)  There's probably a corner case I'm
missing though. :-)
