 You might ''want'' files created in node directories (i.e. {{{tahoe-
 client.tac}}}) to be incompatible! Maybe you want node directories created
 with your amonteros-experiment branch to fail if you try to start that
 node using the mainline. Or maybe not! But I also don't think it is that
 big of a deal either way. By the way, #1159 would make it so that the node
 directories can be started by tahoe code regardless of its appname.
