That works for some pages, but I'm not sure it works in general (or at
least it's not always trivial to figure out if the path exists).

One example is ui-log, where it's perfectly reasonably to ask for the
log restricted to a path which doesn't exist in HEAD, and I'm not sure
at what point we decide that checking if the path exists at any point in
the history is more expensive than printing a long path here.
