It can be used, but we'd lose the ability to use -S from the command
line, and we would need to change the way SD are activated in the
interfaces...
Also, back at VDD i wrote that using the configuration chain, and
dionoea said to not use that and go this way...

I don't have a non-UTF-8 file system at hand to test, but which part
are you referring to?
vlc_cancel() should work, it's used in the lua interface too, but just
to be sure, how do i test that?

Just noticed an error in the second patch, it search the script only
using config_GetUserDir(), but it should do it using vlclua_dir_list()
as in the probe, i forgot to change that...
