IMHO the sieve spec missed a trick in this respect. Given that there are many other places in sieve where a list of strings can be supplied as arguments it seems like it would be obvious that
fileinfo ["foo" "bar"];
could carry the meaning of file into the "bar" subfolder of "foo" and just short circuit the "what's the hierarchy separator?" question.
Maybe this was considered during the standardization process and rejected.
