This is the obvious hierarchical separator, and consistent with having
URNs as an expanded form for dataset names (see RFC8141
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8141)

The only real downside is that it uses some syntax which might be nice
for a path component, but we could potentially use something like
namespace/name:a/b/c for that instead. Or perhaps the URN syntax if we can
put up with a bit of extra verbosity for some extra flexibility.
