           All nodes that are related to the package format shall start
           with a plus-sign (+).

       What is a "node"?

    A file, directory, char. device, etc.  Anything provided by the
    file-system really.

But how do these "nodes" relate to a package?
If you're talking about files in the package's directory,
please call them "files" and "directories", and avoid confusion.
