| Well, how much filtering should filePro do?  Should it list only those
| directories which contain a file named "map"?  Should it actually open
| the map and verify that it's valid?  Should it scan all of the drives
| to see if there is a valid "key" somewhere?

It should do what it's doing now.  People who store non-filePro files
under PFDIR should do so with their eyes open, and not expect much more
that the current situation.

I myself have a couple of scripts inside valid filePro directories, and
if I ever run setperms, I have to remember to restore the execute bits on
those scripts.
