Oops, I forgot to add this.
These sort of restrictions mean a user may be forced to put extra
search directories in their home directory. Rather than recognize
$HOME or %USERPROFILE% in an absolute path, it might be nice to add
a <HOME> directory tag in addition to <LDRAWDIR> and <MODELDIR>.
I'm not sure what this would default to in single user systems
though. Perhaps the root directory?
