If you were to download the unofficial parts into a distinct directory (eg.
in the ldview dir tree) and then call them from there it would allow an
inexperienced viewer to see things in a transparent way without blurring this
distinction between official and unofficial.

They'd definitely go into a special directory.  (Right now in my development
code that directory is u_parts in the ldraw dir.  It would probably become
"Unofficial Parts", or something similar, since LDView isn't going to work on a
system that doesn't support long filenames.)
