Sorry; I wasn't clear.  It wasn't about not
listing `.' and `..'.  I meant that vanilla
Emacs sometimes doesn't let you apply actions
to those lines.

For example, `dired-toggle-marks' doesn't act
on them.  (Dired+ has an option to decide
whether to do so.)

Anyway, this isn't important here - vanilla
`n' and `p' don't skip over `.' and `..'.
