I tested the updated method with the demo provider (I changed the
scheme and the package to avoid conflicts) and it works. I did a quick
code review and that was the only reference to file that I could find.

Having that said I'm a bit confused by the JarFileSystemProvider. It's
a subclass of ZipFileSystemProvider but has the scheme and is not
referenced anywhere.
