My point is that nothing to do with the member folder concept belongs in
CMFCore - I realise it is there already, but I think that is a mistake.
It's doesn't feel like a universal site feature. To me, it's
equivalent to having a RecipeBook module in CMFCore, or a
PopupWindowGenerator, or something like that :-)
But then, maybe that's just me. Personally, I've never used
Memberfolders in 3 years of making all kinds of websites using the
CMF... but maybe I'm an exception.

If I were doing it, I would propose to move everything to do with member
folders into CMFDefault.
