Since the store id is used as its filename, that would entail encoding
the id before using it as a filename.  I suppose we could actually
create any apparent directories, but that feels like a dirty hack.

If you're thinking of Arch revision names, I just used '%' as an
archive/revision separator, something tla does too.
