BackPAN::Index::Release->path is too much for a lot of purposes. authors/id/S/SO/SOMEONE/Foo-Bar-1.23.tar.gz is useful if you want to build a URL to fetch the file, but if all you want is a canonical name for a release archive, SOMEONE/Foo-Bar-1.23.tar.gz is enough.
I've been calling this "short_path". I have some reservations that name isn't descriptive enough.
