[[[ To any NSA and FBI agents reading my email: please consider    ]]]
[[[ whether defending the US Constitution against all enemies,     ]]]
[[[ foreign or domestic, requires you to follow Snowden's example. ]]]

Since people are making a lot of headway on optimizing this
in Emacs, I won't trouble the Find maintainers for now.

I wonder if it is possible to detect many cases in which
the file-name handlers won't actually do anything, and bind
file-name-hander-list to nil for those.
