Simon,
    I only partly agree with you :
       - The folders would have to be refreshed only once per opening 
operation (as currently when some changes are done while the browser is 
opened)
       - This operation would only occur on a user action (a click), and 
therefore if it was to be slow, it would also slow down the "click rate" 
of that user. At the end I think that the server charge would not be 
that different.
    At the end, I am pretty sure that it would not be that slow ... But 
I am sure it would be usefull.
    Vincent.
