It's up to you. If you  disallow generic entries which are "too generic",
you  solve the  problem  you mentioned  but may  not  solve the  filelist
owner's (other) problems. If you link  a filelist to the root, you should
ALWAYS flag it as a filelist, so  that a GET command can "edit" it before
sending  it. Not  linking  it anywhere  forces the  user  to specify  the
filelist  name on  any GET  request, but  isolates other  users from  the
"wildly generic" entry. Your decision.
