Is there any way to do it without adding additional data?
If the blue_folder entity has a key 'blue_data', can the predicate
exclude objects that have a blue_data key (without throwing an
exception, obviously). In short, can a predicate check if a key exists?
As a last resport, would it be insane to override -[NSArrayController
fetchWithRequest:merge:error] to search each child entity
individually and merge the results?

Now, say I want to exclude the blue_ folders. It would be nice if
I could just say:
NSPredicate *blueFolderPredicate = [ NSPredicate
predicateWithFormat:@"entity.name LIKE %@", @"blue_folder" ];
[ allMyFolders setFetchPredicate:[ NSCompoundPredicate
notPredicateWithSubpredicate:blueFolderPredicate ] ];
.. but (of course) entity is not a valid key.
Any ideas?
Create an attribute that describes the type of each instance.
