actually, it should be possible to do something with /prog/$pid/ns
how (and if) names in the current namespace map to external
filenames. that way you wouldn't have to special case /n/c,
or (my usual one) /n/short where i've done something like:

  bind '/n/c/Program Files/Something-1.9.2' /n/short
