You have discovered that we are half-way in the transition to "logical 
session names" (as in the isabelle build name space), instead of pointing 
to the file-system (via findlogics).

There is still a slight mismatch: the outer syntax is determined 
statically from the session information, and the image is then searched 
again in some other way.
