imho *both* are out for the disadvantages. databases - no discussion. but .info
files will break with every shell command you use, will break if you symlink
files (how many symlinks do you have on your system? run a find and tell me),
they will clutter all directories, eat up inodes and kill wildcard use and
shell-completion.

please, pretty please, forget about this really bad idea.
