Wandering off into the territory of "personal preferences" here, but I trust
the idea of fewest surprises...
I think, if you plug in and mount a USB device (appearing under
/run/media/<username>) it's not indexed. It's "removable".
If you've taken the extra step and mounted something through /etc/fstab,
it's not "removable", it can be indexed (if you wish).
Extending the model to sshfs...
A command line sshfs mount, even if mounted within your home directory,
should be considered "removable" and the
contents should not be indexed by default.
Whereas you should be able to index an sshfs mount that was set up in
/etc/fstab
Any folder include/excludes in the .config/baloofilerc should take precidence.
It's not so clear cut with Dolphin, I can imagine people expecting a search
"From here" to search everything below "here", irrespective of whether it is
local or remote. At least for filename searches.
You can see many bugs/issues/queries logged about Dolphin/Baloo's behaviour
with symlinks, where the expectation is that "symlinks are followed". I think
this is a reasonable indicator...
