I agree it's more unified, but I see two problems with doing it this way. 
It's a double negative which isn't very elegant, I think we should avoid 
that if possible.  Most importantly, you then lose the ability to scan a 
handful of specific files in a directory.  Suppose you wanted to get 
/etc/profile and /etc/passwd but nothing else.

Unfortunatly I don't have a good suggestion at this point.
