It's not logical at all.  One property is set by the folder code, and the other
is set by the AppSearch action.  I'm not saying that the change is wrong, but
it has to be backed up by a test.  Guessing the behavior of the Win32 API is
what causes bugs.  If you can't write a test, then I'll whip something up over
the weekend.
