Would there be anything against using hard links?
Isn't it nice that you can delete the original files,
knowing that that are save when used in a session.
Portability would be a problem of course,
and deleting files might become more difficult
then you would like.
But if you would be able to control this with the
session manager, it might be a desirable feature.

If all Linux Audio software dealt with external references in this
way, archiving/export would be much less problematic.
Finding a solution for externals, was the whole point of this discussion.
After all the many arguments, I'm now feeling too,
that symlinks are the right thing for NSM.
Thank you everyone, for participating.
Furthermore, in addition to the plain old
symlinks, a truly robust
solution might also store e.g. SHA1 hashes of external files, so that
any mismatch is detectable.
Interesting point.
