Hi David,

  For the time being, I don't want to have a default directory.  In the
case of something under "~/.conkerorrc", that does not work because
~/.conkerorrc is permitted to be either a file or a directory.  In the
case of using the profile directory, I would like to move away from
dependencies on the profile.  The search-engine module does in fact use
the profile directory for this purpose, but that is something I would
like to remove in favor of a load-path style loader.

  I think the ultimate solution will be, at some future point, to
eliminate the use of ~/.conkerorrc in favor of a directory called
~/.conkeror, which can contain pre-defined subdirectories for opensearch
files, opml files, themes, and whatever else we come up with.  But let
us consider that as a project for the future.

  A special buffer for listing the available opml files?  The user still
has to enable them in the rc, so I don't see the point of this.  But
maybe I misunderstand.

  All else sounds good.  I'm really looking forward to this feature.
