Of cause not everybody loves it or even likes it -- is it possible to
have a blessed "Documents" folder on a non-startup volume using OS 9.0.4?

Creating a folder named "Documents" on a secondary volume gives a regular
folder (expected result), copying the blessed "Documents" folder to a
secondary volume at least retains the "blessed" icon (that didn't work
using previous OSes if memory serves right).

For the stupid like me, this behavior indicates I could trash my original
"Documents" folder and have a working blessed "Documents" folder wherever
I like. Anybody with a deeper insight willing to comment?
