We already have an FSSTXDocument type, added as a way to configure 
"help" pages as skins.  I would be glad to have that class generalized / 
extended to support static HTML.

Yuppie's notion of a "content-space" DirectoryView has merit, as well. 
Such an object might need some UI for setting policies separately from 
those of the "software" type.
