Please let's not confuse matters here: What Eliot has been mentioning is a chdir() call in the VM which I have no opinion about.
Yes, that was clear for me, and that is would I like to see changed.
What I do have an opinion about is the notion of FileDirectory default which has always been set to the image directory (see FileDirectory class startUp).
The only thing I wanted to mention is, that it deserves to be included in the comment. At least from my perspective. That is what I meant by being underspecified, thus, perhaps under-commented ;)
Anyway, once the VMs consistently omit the chdir, then a `FileDirectory current` or some other standard way to obtain the current working directory would be helpful. (And a more verbose comment in FileDirectory default would help to distinguish the two). But perhaps something similar to `FileDirectory current` is already hidden somewhere in the image?
Thanks Stefan
