Its not a debate, there is no difference in terms of the VFS api. Further, there is no distinction between a child directory that is simply a container and an exploded deployment. That is information that is only known by the structure deployers. I'm running into this as part of JBAS-5689 where I see that messaging/jms-ds.xml does not show up in the profile deployments. Rather just the parent messaging directory does and it has subdeployments. 

Maybe we need an attributed file system extension to VirtualFile so further information like content-type and deployment type could be added. With that you would be able to distinguish between an archive and directory, and not have to rerun the structural deployers to figure out what something is.
