I still feel the need to extend URL with properties like name, parentFolder etc.

That isn't necessary for structs conforming to ReferenceConvertible. You just need to import Foundation.

IMO there is a natural class hierarchy here, like

URL -> File
URL -> Folder -> Volume
URL -> Alias

So I am going the opposite way at the moment (double wrapper, ugh!).
