I followed this thread closely. Although I haven't done real personal
testing, I hope I may leave some comments.

I agree with Lindsay that users should be allowed more control *not by
default*.
That would mean, having an 'advanced' tab that includes both Whitelist and
Blacklist options.

Even if Baloo is blazing fast, some users (like me) would appreciate
options to disabled certain path to be indexed (even without any
performance gain). Some people can actually do customizing for the sake of
customizing?

About the folder name/full path, I propose a 'detailed' view option that
can show full path. (Folder name - folder path - date added/removed from
black/whitelist)

I hope my comments is helpful. Please forgive me and discard it otherwise,
I might have no ground to post any comment (I'm self learning to code just
that I can contribute to KDE someday).

Sum up:<br>
Vishesh apparently felt insulted, because he thought Lindsay would have \
implied that he could not do it right and I pointed out that to me Lindsay \
clearly meant that he (or anybody) could not know what is &quot;right&quot; \
to the user in this regard and it&#39;s also about giving the user the idea \
of control (because, frankly, w/o reading the code you&#39;re in nothing \
like that).<br>

She confirmed and stressed that this was not questioning Vishesh&#39;s \
skills, Vishesh accepted - item done.<br> <br>
When, in the context of his mass reply, Albert picked a line from my \
&quot;translation&quot; and asked me about the presence of a feature on \
that, i was frankly under the impression that he was merely reacting on \
keywords and not following the line of a discussion that also finished some \
hours ago.<br>

<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Thomas<br>
