Re: Re: "ignored files" for projects?

More use cases:

 - I sometimes use emacs (don't tell anyone!) and it leaves backup files
around, I like to mark those as hidden.

 - the version control system I use at work leaves soft links and
directories around which are somewhat akin to the CVS directory. 
Looking into this is something like looking at a ClearCase file@@/
directory (which is to say expensive and useless for most tools).  I'd
like to avoid having tools like the java parser see this.

 - some internal tools generate intermediate files which I'd rather not
see in the explorer.

If possible, I wouldn't want to ignore all these things in the "master"
filesystem, since some of the patterns I need to ignore in a project are
directory names.  More concretely, if I set the master filesystem to
ignore "^CVS$", than would I be able to see
/cvsprojects/myproject/CVS/spellchecker/org/netbeans/...  (assuming that
created my $CVSROOT as /cvsprojects/myproject/CVS -- admittedly not a
great choice, but in my case, not under my control).  In this case,
/cvsprojects/myproject/CVS is a valid directory, but all CVSes under
that one I'd like to ignore.
