Follow-up Comment #14, bug #57587 (project octave):

I agree; Feature Request.

The one "script compatibility" thing that logical symlink dirs provide is that
when you do a `cd foo` where foo is a symlink, and then you do a `cd ..`, you
end up in a different location. But that's an unusual case, and `cd ..` in
scripts is bad practice anyway. So this is not at all pressing.
