No it doesn't, it returns the absolute URI of the document node, if it
is passed a document node as it's argument.

Assuming the result is a file scheme URI, then how to get a file name
from this is a little problematic - it depends somewhat upon the
implementation - the file scheme is not highly specified in this respect.

\ is not a legal character in a URI.
