you might consider setting the 'directory' option to a real directory,
then your swapfiles won't pollute the same path of the files you're
editing, and also buys you the advantage of being able to query that
path before a new edit session to see what if anything is already being
edited
you mentioned obtaining default behavior -- the default for 'directory'
is to have real paths and all swapfiles in one place
