As a user of HSC I would like to check whether an index file (index.html or index.htm, configurable) exists in a local directory and then treat the local check as successful.
Webservers like Apache HTTPD allow to configure default files which are loaded for directory URLs.
Many static site generators use this feature and only generate links to the directory.
Consequently, HSC should allow to check for (configurable) index files to satisfy the test.
