When there's a will, there's a way:
* Show a folder icon for a directory and a file icon for a file.
* Do it URI style: path/to/results-Q2%2F2017.json
* Do it C style: path/to/results-Q2\/2017.json
* Do it Python style: [ "path", "to", "results-Q2/2017.json" ]
* Do it Lisp style: (path to results-Q2/2017.json)
I'm sure you can come up with several other workable solutions.
