We could let it look at the old place, and if it finds it, move it to the new location. And most important: Tell the user that we did.
Yeah. And what if there is data in both places? And what if the user tries the new version (which moves the data), dislikes the new gui and rolls back to the old version? And who will answer the zillion new help threads about that?

So, placing "Incoming" into ".aMule" is wrong and violates every HIG in existence.
Funny, you never seemed to care while you were a dev.

I sincerely can't see the point in this feature..
This sums it up pretty well.

Everyone and his priorities, shell we?

aMule GUI and overall "user experience" is awful, but since I used daemon and can use shell, I didn't care then and don't care now. So, it's only "FYI".

You'd even give him your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle, huh?
