How about providing the following as part of this:
1. the option of a control file within that default path, to be able to
specify subdirectories to be ignored. So anyone who already happens to have
a ~/cl/ with a bunch of inactive subfolders with .asd files can make
~/cl/subdirs-to-exclude.asdc whose contents could be e.g.
("inactive-proj-1" "inactive-proj-2")
2. When registering systems in the default location, loudly announce that
this is happening, e.g:
*****
Automatically registering .asd systems under ~/cl/...
Protip: if you want to exclude certain subdirectories, create file
~/cl/subdirs-to-exclude.asdc
containing a list of the subdirectory names to be excluded, e.g.
("inactive-proj-1" "inactive-proj-2")
