I was thinking in terms of "entries" or "bookmarks". IMO "entries" / "bookmarks" can appear as many times you want, OTOH files with identical file names in the same directory seems to be a problem :) "Entries" or "bookmarks" are not to be mistaken for links (or symlinks), for these the above mentioned exclusion seems to apply as well :) Maybe Newell can add an icon in front of the "entry" as to indicate the underlying file type. And maybe even add collapse / expand icons like [-] or [+] ?
