+REM Windows and symlinks do not get along with each other, so on Windows
+REM `node_modules\ep_etherpad-lite` is sometimes a full copy of `src` not a
+REM symlink to `src`. If it is a copy, Node.js sees `src\foo.js` and
+REM `node_modules\ep_etherpad-lite\foo.js` as two independent modules with
+REM independent state, when they should be treated as the same file. To work
+REM around this, everything must consistently use either `src` or
+REM `node_modules\ep_etherpad-lite` on Windows. Because some plugins access
+REM Etherpad internals via `require('ep_etherpad-lite/foo')`,
+REM `node_modules\ep_etherpad-lite` is used here.
