I understand there are things a normal person cannot and should not access. My point was the normal person should not see that when they are accessing files and folders. They do not normally see it in the finder so they should not see it in a program I release. I am not going to change their file permissions and I do not want to notify them of it. So if it gives me any problems in a normal situation I need to think there are a lot of users who know less and care less about it than me and it will just be a problem for them.
