dear damien,

your idea about

	Devices (links to the devices:/ url)
	Personal Files (links to ~)
	Documents 
	Music 
	Pictures
	Settings

makes a lot of sense [yes it's not new, but it's doable].

i am also going to have to somehow hack into konqueror a means
to TOTALLY remove user access to /bin, /var/ in fact everything
but /home, /cdrom and /floppy.

whilst also still making it possible to run programs, of course,
so running konqueror in a chroot jail isn't an option to solve
that issue.

if the top-level were as you suggest, that'd be "Job Done".

if the Devices only showed mounted drives / active devices that'd
be even better.

the reason for that is because when i view devices at the moment,
users are presented with /dev/hda1 /dev/hda2 /dev/hda3 /dev/hda5
/dev/hda7 /dev/cdrom and it's just... too much.

... you think i want to explain those to dumb-ass idiots used to
windows, or to people who've never _had_ a computer before?

:)
