I'm not particularly against this, but I think it might confuse people not 
experienced with the command-line. I remember when half of my school lost all 
of their mail because they deleted that weird "Maildir" folder that appeared 
on their homes, and I can imagine people wanting to get rid of "that ugly 
'..' thing I didn't put there". It also seems non-intuitive, for anyone who 
does not use the command-line. ".." is not a good metaphor for "go one level 
up". Anyway, I'm not usability expert, and what I'm saying is what I _think_ 
that might annoy users. Don't take it too seriously.
