I agree that there may be use-cases where there will be an separate
directory to watch but as a user that has access to the MINIFI directory
directly, my natural thinking is to modify the file itself. If it's not too
much trouble to optimize now I would lean towards that though if it would be a
lot of needless work we can just properly document the limitations.
