Actually, it would be a problem, which is why I didn't do it.

Wanna hear another weird thing? If I ask Safari to Open File and navigate to this folder (containing 509 HTML files whose creator codes are now set to Safari), the folder's contents aren't displayed--just a dead end at the folder. If I go ahead and click Open on the folder, it opens...in the Finder!

It's either a bug or a feature, depending on who you ask. By default, Safari seems to use the Finder for the file and ftp protocols.

Apple, are you reading this?
I hope so. Have you submitted a bug report/feature request?

Hmm... Apple software not working the way we'd like.
Hmm... ooh, ooh... I know! I know! It's a.. uh... third-party opportunity!
