However, I'm not really sure why we would need to use realpath() or other means of path canonicalization at all. If the user wants to access an external document through a symlink, we should not interfere with that.
If you pass a non-normalised path to f_file_test then it fails. The code in question is a filtered output rather than a property which we would save. The local and non-normalised path would continue to be used in the toString function and only file existence checking and opening would use getFullPath.
