That might be the most sensible thing to do, but then again maybe it would
be better to just leave the URL bar of to minimize confusion. Since the idea
is to maximize simplify, maybe a Window with simple menus and just the file
listing would be most efficient.
I understand that f*ing with URLs is a bad confusing thing, so it might be
best to just leave from the Newbies eyes.
I think simplicity is a important aspect here, but also not confusing users
is an important part of simplicity
