I just discovered an icon called "badFolder.tiff" in
/usr/lib/NextStep/Workspace.app/WM.app, so that's how the "ghosting"
is done for folders the user has no permission to see.

Also, I received a suggestion to try 1/3 alpha and NX_WHITE sover'd
over the icon for ghosting during drag, but while it's much closer
than the 50% NX_LTGRAY I was using (thanx Scott!) it's still not
identical to what File Viewer does. 

BTW, I forgot to mention that I'm running NeXTSTEP V3.0. 

Still searching,
Michael
