Hello. I finished the hidden file filter patch off of the latest trunk
(in case you are curious here it is in pastie http://pastie.org/223722).
Please develop this as an issue in Jira, attaching patches there.

Looking at your patch, I would prefer to make HIDDEN_FILE_FILTER a
public constant in FileInputFormat, rather than adding a new public class.
This worries me since the impetous for this error is to fix a problem in
a nutch patch so that nutch is compatible with hadoop-0.17.0.
0.17 and 0.18 are both closed to new features like this. So the patch
should be against trunk and will be included in 0.19. Nutch should
work-around the issue in the meantime. Sorry!
