Calling it from cb_filelist works fine. I have one additional problem: 
with the depth limited to 1 in a directory, if there are no entries in 
that directory then I get the "The page you are looking for is not 
available" thing from the renderer. This doesn't seem to be 
overrideable: cb_prepare runs before that gets called, and if there are 
no entries in the list then the "The page you are looking for is not 
available" message is displayed. I suppose I could throw a fake entry 
into entry_list from cb_prepare, but that seems really crufty. How 
should I get around this? I suppose I could also write a new renderer 
that knows to ignore that message, but that seems like a lot of work!
