 I set up a Tahoe client (so I could share files with him securely) for
 someone who is technically knowledgeable, but does not know Tahoe's
 architecture. When I showed him the directory page for our shared
 directory, he found it uninformative, as follows:

  * “The Directory page should have a Title or Label that says it is Tahoe
 xxx” — that is, that it is a part of Tahoe.
  * “What is the difference between Upload a file and Attach a file - in a
 directory page?” — I think this could be improved by changing the wording
 of the Attach form to something like "Add a file already in Tahoe in this
 directory"
  * “What is Mutable?” (in the upload-a-file form)
