One of the truly beautiful aspects of PowerShell is that
Get-ChildItem/Copy-Item don't know anything about the Windows filesystem.
They work with any PowerShell provider to get and copy whatever widgets the
provider provides.

I expect to see Get-FileInfo, Copy-File and other filesystem specific
cmdlets in either a furture version of PowerShell or a future release of
PSCX.
