    v1 v2  
    11When I said +1 for option 1, I was thinking that the previous behaviour of cases (B) and (C) --i.e. copying the contents of a dircap into a directory-- would become inexpressible. However I now understand the error in option 3 to be saying that "you must specify a previously nonexisting destination directory name". In that case you could still write:
    22
    3 * (K) `cp -r DIRCAP local/missing -> local/missing`
     3* (J2) `cp -r DIRCAP local/missing -> local/missing`
    44
    55which would be consistent with cases (F) and (I), because `local/missing` becomes a copy of `DIRCAP`.
