   I think you overload the purpose of `confirm' with usage it
   wasn't invented for, but if others don't object, I won't fight.

i think CONFIRM's meaning should not be expanded to include
parent directory creation.  furthermore, i wonder how the change
behaves when the filesystem is remote (tramp), and in the presence
of other special filename handling.
