Consistent with unix names, where we use forward slash
instead of backslash (both in file and registry names),

why do I get an error when I try to use <domain>/user as a user arg when <domain>\\user is allows? Should I get a warning about using a Windows style identifier by using backslash? I mean there's been this increasing strictly about getting away from using backslash in windows paths,
I'm surprised it's still even allowed in user names, let
alone, being the ONLY option allowed.

Isn't this inconsistent?  Any plans to fix this?

Thanks!
Linda
