I thought the same. Then I came to the conclusion that Kovid and crew would have done it.
Please suggest how this can reliably be detected, because the idea is good, but the how is elusive and gets even harder supporting cross platforms?
Remember Calibre puts reliability and cross platform at the top of the list.
A Timing test fails because of caching?
An API query (are you a networked drive type?) is a maintainers headake with all the variations.
