    Hi Ravi,

    Looks like what you described is still present
    in the current version, although quite intermitantly.
    I'll look into it.

    As for getting rid of . and .., there appears to be
    no way of doing it right now. However, it's a simple
    change for me to allow the filter to filter directories.
    So unless someone comes up with a reason it's bad
    idea, I will make the changes.
