BTW, that is just my opinion of course, not fact. I should be more tactful in 
that regard.

With regard to only showing the end leaf of a directory in the exclusion list 
and the auto adding of paths, after reviewing your explanations of how it 
works and your examples, it seems to me we've been viewing it from different 
use cases.

I'm focussed on inclusions/exclusions of static local directories, whereas 
your examples seem to be more concerned with the dynamic adding/removal of 
external drives (USB etc).

I'm guessing your patterning it on something like the places panel in Dolphin 
where drives will appear/disappear dynamically. In that context it makes send 
to only display the last leaf, though I think what Dolphin actually shows is 
the volume name.

cheers,
