Comment (by pulkomandy):
Well, windows gets this wrong, they make it appear as if the archive was a
regular filesystem, but in fact it isn't, and only the file you open is
extracted to a temporary directory, changes made to it do not get stored
to the archive but the file isn't marked as readonly, etc. Indeed if you
wanted to confuse users, that would be a great way to achieve it.
If we were to do this, it would be as an actual filesystem, so that it
would actually work as expected, making zip files a kind of compresed
folders.
