I'd expect the opposite, actually. Sure, you'd have to do a "grep */*.c" instead of "grep *.c" when you're looking for something, but that's not that much harder, is it? The only impact I'd expect is that "ls" output would be easier to swallow visually, and *maybe* a better way to support other protocols if we desire.
