I personally always have trouble reading nested diffs ('+-' vs '-+',
anybody?). So this was intended to be helpful. Apologies, if it's not.
Granted, an entire file added is not quite as hard to read (i.e. no '-+'
possible).

It certainly matches Nasal/IOrules in flightgear-data, so it seems well
intended, yes. And as advertized, it's clearly more restrictive than it
used to be.

According to the comment in that same file, only $FG_HOME and $FG_ROOT
are known variables to be replaced, there. Adding $TMPDIR might be a
bigger effort, but I'm not quite sure what Nasal scripts need to write
temporary XML files.

Rebecca, care to comment?
