Those files can definitely end up in lower directories (from what I've
seen of other live usb sticks).

I was thinking about this last night, it likely wouldn't be too hard
to write a wrapper for the greeter to detect if those files (or other
similar files/directories, like __MACOSX) are present. It should then
be possible to pop up a very big warning in the greeter, ideally
before the user has a chance to type in their persistence password (if
used) or before starting a session.

That would also allow differentiating between Windows and OSX, but I
don't think that differentiation matters in practice.

Thoughts? If there's interest / lack of opposition I'll file a ticket.
