Description
Our Use Case is to map different files opened in VS-Code to correspondig schemas. See this issue. We therefore use the API of your XML extension.
At the moment we use the filename to indentify a opened file (we use the filename in the pattern field). However, it is possible that the user opens two files with same filename, but different paths.
Is it possible to use absolute paths in the pattern field?

Research direction
Start by reading the referenced issue 1053 and the XML association API documentation, focusing on how the pattern field currently identifies opened files. Define how absolute paths should be matched when filenames collide, then verify the behavior through the extension's existing association handling and tests, if available.
