Could Gnus set up notifications against a directory (Maildir or nnml)? Then it wouldn't have to scan the directory to find out what files have been added or deleted. Another possible use case is that `dired' and `vc-dir' could autoupdate so you don't have to hit `g' to refresh. A buffer for a VC-controlled file, e.g. with Git, could listen for notifications on the directory and notice when the current branch or other information change and at least update the modeline. I hope these are interesting :) Ted
