But having the URL is useful. I would love to know where some terribly named file was downloaded from. (This is at least a fairly common problem in science) This would also be helpful for after the fact scans if an intrusion detection system discovered a site is hostile Shouldn't the url xattr be hidden if you're using an encrypted file system? What about just making it more obvious that a file has extended attributes? One of the problems with location data in images is many people didn't even know it was being captured. Could there be an color or flag for ls? and could nautilus & dolphin have some indicator? Diane
