Quick question...should this work after the product is installed i.e., in 
maintenance mode or even in a patch?

A quick implementation we've messed with results in a read only session object 
in these situations; before we get heavy into looking into this, wanted to see 
if you knew off the top of your head...

If the list of directories is known, you don't need to do that. If it's
not, you can write a custom action to write rows to the MoveFile table
to do the copying. See
