Yep. I think that leaving the "allow remote file transfers" off by
default (and make 0.3 honor it like it should) will satisfy that
requirement.

It only restricts remote stations from seeing your files. It won't
stop you from initiating transfers.

No, D-RATS would only create the folder it was configured for and if
it didn't exist. So, on a fresh install it would create the default
directory. You'd change D-RATS' config to point to the folder you
want and delete the default one. It would not re-create the default
after that.
