   > And the "partition base directory" is automatically set if a user does 
something like ds.dataset("_shouldnt_be_ignored/dataset/") ?
   
   Currently in python the partition_base_dir is always identical to the base 
directory of the recursive selector used, so yes. In principle it would be 
possible to select `/mnt/data/**` and set 
`partition_base_dir=/mnt/data/partitioned`, in which case `/mnt/data/other/**` 
would be included in the dataset but would not have partition information 
attached.
