The more I think on it, the less useful it is to index the whole machine by default. For a start off there is a lot of content that make no sense to index - config files, scripts, web apps, all the binaries of course. And totally breaks on any machine with multiple user accounts, which is actually quite common, both for business and home usage. Peoples searchable content is generally stored under their home directories and/or on a file server, which again is not uncommon - lot of home NAS's out there now. Just specifying a default white list of the home dir covers that nicely and allows them to easily extend that for data and/or shares that might be mounted out of their home dir. If you really want to index every dir than you can just whitelist the root. -- Lindsay
