Consider a ZIP file containing two different entries both named /foo (or a file entry under /foo and a directory entry under /foo/).

  • Are such files even allowed in the specification?
  • Can they be crafted regardless?
  • Can they be unpacked in a sensible way? (This might depend on the target file system.)
  • How important it is to support such files?
