That's almost terminally cute, but I like it. Unless someone can think of a major objection (such as that it makes it too easy to use SUPER semantics rather than NEXT semantics), let's go with it. >From a programmer point of view the mnemonic is pragmatically good, because use of ./ in shell is mostly only for commands, so people are used to seeing it as part of an invocation process, not just a file location process.
