Which is normally well-indicated by file name and location within the directory tree.
Then I can conclude you don't maintain a library of technical and research publications retrieved from, say the ACM Digital Library or CiteSeer or from authors own Web sites. ACM DL PDF files names are all of the form "p###-author.pdf". Those from Citeseer have no rhyme or rhythm (they're usually what the submitting author chose, and are almost uniformly meaningless).
that's hardly the average user..or anything close to the average user.
You don't know what you're talking about.
If you don't have enough documents on your system to require a content-oriented index, good for you. There are many of us who do.
file servers, yes. Desktops? hardly.
Yes. All _proper_ users are just like you. The absolute average, middle-of-the-road user who defines and dictates what all other _proper_ users want and need and should have. It's an absurd assertion that no one needs a file content index. Many do.
