 The [https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/blob/2438.magic-folder-
 stable.5/docs/proposed/magic-folder/remote-to-local-sync.rst#evaluation-
 of-designs Magic Folder remote-to-local-sync specification] says:

 > "Hidden" files, and files with names matching the patterns used for
 backup, temporary, and conflicted files, will be ignored, i.e. not
 synchronized in either direction. A file is hidden if it has a filename
 beginning with "." (on any platform), or has the hidden or system
 attribute on Windows.

 Checking for the hidden or system attribute is not currently implemented.
