Right, I agree.  And for that reason its actually a negative since it
would give a possibly false assurance that a viewer not being listed is
"ok".  IMO the directory is doing what its meant to do, give an
assurance that LL and the viewer creator has done some diligence and are
interested in keeping its use safe and consistent with the TOS.  Not
being in the list doesn't give any assurance like that hence the
potential for concern.  The easy answer is to get a listing in the
directory.  If that causes some folks heartburn then you're just going
to have to live on the edge and deal with some concerned users.
