Greetings,

How should  local_urls_only  behave when a directory has no default 
document?  Currently it can only retrieve regular files.  We should 
either document the current behaviour, or allow "" as a 
local_default_doc,  and get the directory listing, like file:///  
URLs do. The second option may introduce security problems...

Also, if  local_urls_only  is true, then  file:///  URLs are not 
retrieved, since  RetrieveLocal()  fails.  There are other protocols, 
such as KDE's  help:  and  man:  and gnome's  ghelp:  which are also 
"local", but cannot be retrieved through the filesystem.  Should this 
just be accepted and documented?

Cheers,
Lachlan
