Backups, Archives, Shared folder repositories - anything that could generate 
search results obscuring the content you actually want searched.

My own /data list:

dl   
export  
images   
lost+found  
nfs    
recovered        
softlog  
stuff  
testing  
VirtualBox
dws  
Games   
lindsay  
Music       
ovirt  
recovered-types  
Steam    
Tax    
Video    
VM


Only the /Data/Lindsay/Documents path needs to be indexed, and a number of the 
other paths *really* shouldn't be indexed.


Why are you so intent on telling us what we should be indexing? what is wrong 
with giving the user choice?
