+   This also creates an unlinked directory, but instead of returning the URI
+   as a string, this form will return an HTTP Redirect that takes you to the
+   new directory's HTML page, just as if you had directed your browser to
+   /uri/$NEWDIRURI . If you bookmark this page, you'll be able to get back to
+   the directory again in the future.
