I don't know Windows well enough to know exactly what should happen, but
here are some thoughts:
- you can solve your problem with something like cywin-mount.el.
I know Eli doesn't like cywin-mount.el, but I think we should at least
add such a feature to GNU ELPA.
- It might still make sense to want to understand cygwin-style file
names from emacsclient without wanting cygwin-mount (which tries to
handle cywin file names *everywhere*). But then it should probably
work not only for emacsclient but also for file name args to emacs
itself (as a general rule, we should strive to make `emacs' and
`emacsclient' command line handling more similar rather than more
different).
