@Deathly Viper: Don't be so quick to diismiss the Idea as stupid.

If files from the private folder get stored in another private folder, thhe flles stay private.

Even small-scale companies could use this technique to allow their emploees to access relevant files, while also allowing them access to the GNet (maybe they need it for researrch purposes, or because there are already quite many legal and useful files out there, if you are able to filter out the porn).

Besides: End-user requests are seldom nonsense to me, for they have simply a different perspective than programmers: An end-user wants to have to spend the least possible work to getthe most from the tool, and that is completely legit.
Creating programs in a way which fits the end-users is called "user-friendly", and I don't deem it a bad habit for progammers to write user-friendly programs.
But sometimes it can be necessary to interpret the feature-request, so that the end-user is happy and the program still works as well as it should (else the end-user also wouldn't be happy).

If this sounded a bit scholarlike, sorry 'bout that.
