I was wondering if we could also say that D exists as a directory when we know there is D/F in the index and is up to date.
Yeah, that would probably be a good thing, but is slightly slower to look up (we have the name hashing for the case-ignoring code anyway, but that only works for exact names, so you can't look up directories that way). You'd have to use the regular binary search for that (or we'd have to change it to hash directories too - which we might want to do for other reasons, but don't do now). Something like this?
