WebDAV and BeeGFS are not alone, the Windows ms-nfs41-client and
ms-nfs42-client ALWAYS (even with default NFSv4.1 port TCP/2049) use
UNC paths with "@" character, like
\\stripe02 DOT zebracluster DOT intra DOT pasteur DOT fr AT 2049\nfs4\disk02\
OpenText NFSv4.0 client also supports that, but only if you not use
the default NFSv4.0 TCP port.

So it's pretty common in UNC paths to have one @ (for port) or more @
(for other options like WebDAV's @SSL) in the UNC paths.

So yes, please, Cygwin should document this as a supported configuration.
