Minion modules request write permissions to a particular directory and all subdirectories. While it would theoretically be possible for a module to pick out which directories it wants, it is NOT possible for a module to say that other modules are not allowed to write there.

Similarly, it wouldn't be recommended to pick out addon folders individually for write access -- this would be very annoying to the end user as it has a high probability of changing. The WoWI module simply requests access to the WoW folder and all subdirectories, which will never change (except in the event of WoW moving)
