When I was writing MenuEdit I had a bomb in SFPGetFile that went away
iff I rebooted without Quick Folder (perhaps somebody with my MenuEdit
[I later learned that there's another identically named program by
someone with a little better name recognition; mine's the one with
the non-generic icon and the menu-shaped windows] and Quick Folder could
tell me if that's still a problem).  Given these errors, I think there's
probably something non-quite-kosher about Quick Folder, nifty though
it is.
