The better joke would have been that it already works.

With bash, if you 'scp user@host:/et<TAB>' it will autocomplete from
the local filesystem.  A groggy user might take your joke, try it, and
think they're seeing the filesystem at the far end.

I did read a decent interview with Sir Tim recently (though apparently
I didn't bookmark it), where he says he realizes he botched URLs (and
now regrets it) by not starting with the TLD and working down.
