Title:
  udisksctl doesn't accept absolute object-paths

Status in udisks2 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  If I issue "udisksctl dump" and then issue "udisksctl info" for one of
  the objects in the dump, I get an error message. For instance:

  $ udisksctl info --object-path
  /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q

  (udisksctl info:4995): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_object_manager_get_object: assertion 'g_variant_is_object_path (object_path)' failed
  Error looking up object with path /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q

  This is confusing.

  It turns out that object paths must be relative to
  /org/freedesktop/UDisks2. For instance:

  $ udisksctl info --object-path drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q
  /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/drives/TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q_TSSTcorp_CDDVDW_SH_S223Q:
    org.freedesktop.UDisks2.Drive:
  [snip]

  I don't know if this is a bug in the executable or in the man page. In
  either case, I suggest it would be very helpful to state in
  udisksctl(1) that relative object paths must/can (whichever it is) be
  used.
