Actually - heh, -displayNameAtPath: really strips it back to just the folder 
name, with no path at all. That doesn’t tell the user *where* the folder is. 
Unless they’re already familiar with the location it’s likely less helpful than 
~/path/to/folder

Ideally I wouldn’t expose users to paths of any kind, but since the whole point 
of this feature is export of a series of files, they pretty much have to deal 
with where they end up, since once out of the app they are presumably needed in 
some other context.
