Also another case which would be relatively weird if you didn't have multi-layered support: .sub/.idx combinations for split episode files. Let me illustrate:
Currently:
<div style="width: auto; overflow: hidden;"><div style="border:1px solid #cccccc; padding: 3px; background-color:#f9f9f9; width: 262px;">http://xs68.xs.to/pics/06076/current-subs-split-subandidx.png</div></div>
With original shadow-files:
<div style="width: auto; overflow: hidden;"><div style="border:1px solid #cccccc; padding: 3px; background-color:#f9f9f9; width: 396px;">http://xs68.xs.to/pics/06076/shadow-subs-split-subandidx.png</div></div>
With worf's shadow-files:
<div style="width: auto; overflow: hidden;"><div style="border:1px solid #cccccc; padding: 3px; background-color:#f9f9f9; width: 640px;">http://xs68.xs.to/pics/06076/worf-shadow-subs-split-subandidx.png</div></div>
 
As you can see, this would require that every file be able to have files under it and be assigned to however many other files is necessary.
:<tt><pelican> A further consideration: subtitles must be available even if no other file for the episode or episodes they represent is</tt>
This would take care of this concern that pelican had. Atleast in my opinion. He did have a rather different approach to the problem than what is described here, and as I don't understand it fully, I can only hope that he will describe it properly himself.

Oh wait, I just realized that I didn't explain this part properly: "<tt>and be assigned to however many other files is necessary.</tt>"<br>
What I mean is that ''other RAWs for the same episode can usually use the same subs'', so the files would haveto be able to have many "parent" files, and the same subs should also be listed properly under the actual episode for those who just want the subs and don't need/already have/only want to steal/whatever can see that the episode actually has separate subs.

:<small>hope this is actually helpful to some ppl, so I'm not just blowing off steam on a non-issue >_<</small> ... I do feel that this needs a more proper going through, if exp agrees or not, I have no clue. It also seems unclear (atleast to me) whether exp has decided on an actual design when it comes to shadow-files or if that is still up for discussion; there seems to be a few people who still has something to say about that, but atleast PetriW did seem to [http://www.anidb.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=7294#7294 describe] the first of the shadow-files versions described here.
