"Load files only within the starting directory" and "Custom Directory"

Hi, in "URL Filters", "Directory", if I want to:
-Choose "Load files only within the starting directory and below"
-and exclude some directories below the starting directory

For example:
I want to download everything below "www.test.com/foo/", except "www.test.com/foo/bar"

How do I do that? Do I have to include "www.test.com/foo/" itself in "Included directories keywords"?

I think "Custom directories configuration" should be a checkbox itself, and should not be in the same radio group with the other two. This should also applies to "Server" and "Filename" too.

Thanks!

This is what I think, a clearer design for the filter, where:
-"Custom directory keywords" is a checkbox itself
-"Included" and "Excluded" are two separate listbox that are always visible:

=================================
( ) Load files from all directories
(*) Load files only within the starting directory and below

[X] Custom directory keywords:
Keyword:
[textbox]

Included: Excluded:
[Listbox] [Listbox]


=================================
Thanks

I agree with you. But even with the current design, you can select "Custom configuration", select "Included..." and press Ctrl+S on keyboard - this will add the starting directory to the Included keywords list automatically. This also works for Server and Filename sections in URL Filters.
