Most of that code is Microsoft's, actually. All of the ITEMIDLIST handling
was taken from this article:
Working with Item ID Lists
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/programmersguide/shell_adv/pidl_ovw.asp
There are actually specialized functions that handle all those details
internally, but they are not available on all systems. Rather then showing
code to find the functions and use them if available, I just opted for the
manual approach for simplicity.

I am not an MFC programmer, but my skills are already legendary here ;-)
