Yes. It makes me uncomfortable to hardwire such a long list of things,
but I didn't see a better alternative in this case.

It depends on what you have in mind. The search paths can be changed
dynamically at runtime if so desired. Do you want to search the share
directories for directories at runtime? I don't see the utility in that
-- if you add a directory to share, you can easily add a corresponding
entry to the search list in the startup file. (The startup file needs to
be fixed/implemented...)
Did you have something else in mind?
