I asked you to provide a detailed description. If the spelling for
the `gzip:' token is different or the arguments are different that the
monikers it will not help to have them unified.
now, to achieve unification, I requested you to post a detailed and
precise description of how those work on the vfs land. Once that is
done, we can make sure our ::parseDisplayName methods in the monikers
work the same way.

detailed description. Otherwise, help us reduce the noise in the
