Setting depth with the flav_config plugin

I've been fiddling with the flav_config plugin in order to set specific 
config variables in one directory (and subdirs) but not others. 
Specifically, I'd like to set the recurse depth to 1 in this directory 
(/photos) so pyblosxom doesn't show all the photos in all subdirs. The 
documentation in the plugin implies that this ought to work:

   Thus a sample configuration file might look like this:
   py = {}
   py["depth"] = 0
   py["num_entries"] = 10

but limiting "depth" doesn't seem to work. I think that this is because 
flav_config is called in cb_prepare, and at that point Pyblosxom has 
*already* recursed down the list of directories (using the default 
"depth" setting) to get a list of entries (and thus setting it after 
that happens has no effect). So, I have a few points:

1. Am I right in my assumption for why it doesn't work?
2. It is really annoying that the example in there is actually bogus :)
3. Is there anything I can do to limit depth on a directory-by-directory 
basis? I tried changing flav_config to use an earlier callback 
(cb_start) but at that point there doesn't appear to be enough stuff set 
up to actually do it (it dies because "form" is empty).
