This shows that this number has not mattered so far -- indeed, it seems 
that existing viewers have gone out of their way to ignore it when 
dealing with OpenSim. So, I'm convinced it's safe to move on to 
converging OpenSim with the SL protocol on this, and extend that 
protocol with a new special folder, Suitcase.

Basically, +1 on Oren's suggested plan of action, modulo using 100 for 
Suitcase folders instead of 9.
