Is the 'baseURI' is set to the URI of the first bundle (ordered by hash)? If data is distributed across multiple CDNs, couldn't this be a suboptimal choice? For example, if the first bundle is on 'A.com', but every other bundle is on 'B.org'?

Hmmm, I think I'm missing something with my earlier comment. I thought the 'uri' argument to 'bundle_uri_parse_config_format()' was an individual bundle's URI? What's the "server's location" in this context?

Using a hardcoded value here leads to pretty different behavior in 'test-bundle-uri.c' vs. starting with an unset 'list.baseURI' in something like 'clone'. Why does this need to be set to '<uri>' for the tests?

This seems a little strange, but it looks like '<uri>/../bundle.bdl' normalizes to 'bundle.bdl' because '<uri>' is treated like a regular path element (like a directory).

Out of curiosity, what would happen if 'bundle.two.uri' was '../../bundle.bdl'?
