In 3.0 (perhaps in 2.1 and 2.2, but I don't recall seeing it), what  
determines whether you see the two houses (for someone else's homedir)  
or a folder (regular subdirectory) is the setting of "Large File  
System" in your Preferences (accessible via Preferences.app).  Why not  
see the two houses regardless of this setting?  I am probably not  
understanding some GUI idea but I don't know what.

While trying to answer this question myself, I went into the 3.0 help  
for Preferences and typed "large file system" and then hit return.   
What a big mistake.  It's been 5 minutes since I hit return and the  
cursor is still spinning.  Perhaps the indexer will work in 3.1?

Thanks.
