i agree that this is the biggest hurdle for newbies and as many can attest is sometimes a problem at demos/workshops with less experienced users

Yeah. But why is unhiding necessary in the first place? From what I
understand, Deken suggests the first writable search path it finds, so
the user usually doesn't need to do anything at all but let Deken
download the external to the right place.
Sorry, again on it... "the right place" as of now, is different for each OS, so we don't really have a "Default" considered to be "the right/best place" for most cases.
Moreover, besides the reasoning I gave that a visible folder is needed. For now, on Mac OS, if I want deken to download to the "user specific" folder, I need to do to this hidden secretive place and create the folder in the first place (no, it won't suggest it and automatically create it for me).
cheers
