The code all depends on and assumes portable paths. Forward slash works in the parser, so that's what it uses. Sometimes backslash will work and sometimes it does not, and it should never be used.

"file" works in a legacy config and it warns. It will not work in a V3 config. The package doesn't supply any configuration of that plugin and I believe all the examples are fixed to use the proper syntax.

But I don't think there are any examples shipped before or now of the Folder plugin (it shouldn't be used anymore anyway but that's beside the point).

If you're seeing broken example it's probably a bug I already know about and only affects upgrades, it's not going to hold the release. It's not getting all the files in dist/ updated correctly. But I don't know where this one would be coming from.
