Feel free to filter things you don't think are popular.  I'd be inclined
to delete Etc/ posix/ and right/ (the latter two only show up on some
platforms).  Another idea is to not show anything more than an hour or
two off from where you think the user is.

I think that's pretty unlikely to happen, unless you switch to a
different platform.
