Comment (by pbiron):

 I was going to comment on
 [[https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/44532/patch.diff|patch.diff]]
 in the morning, but since I'm still up...

 That patch would **not** work.  Specifically, calling
 `wp_normalize_path()` would be **bad**, since `wp_normalize_path()` calls
 `wp_is_stream()`!
