/*

These objects represent single files and folders.  The companion class FileList is used to build lists of multiple files, such as might appear in a browser selection.  The workspace is used to find the necessary icons, titles, and file information.  Files are a subclass of IKFolder so that the filesystem can be properly represented as a directed graph.

Every file in the filesystem corresponds to a single node in the File graph.  The graph is constructed lazily, with parts loaded in only as needed.  A hash table is used to match new files dragged in from the workspace to existing nodes.

It would be nice to demonstrate offloading, but that requires some care.  In general, the graph structure will not correspond to the filesystem after the user has dragged around a few things, so we're likely to get some anomolous results reloading parts of the File graph that were changed.

Two class variables are needed.  The fileMap keeps track of the correspondence between File objects and filenames in the system.  The draggedImage is used to steal the image for a new File directly from the dragging source.  The workspace croacks if we ask it for images during a dragging session.

Here are the class methods that map filenames onto File objects.  Every unique path name in the filesystem corresponds to a single node in the File graph, so a hash table is used to make the correspondence.  Note that if the same file is reachable by two different paths, it will be mapped into two distinct File objects--one for each path.

A logical improvement would be to get the inode number, or some such, and cache on that instead.
