Maybe without "To add/remove some files from the directory." ?

If you'd like to document your new functionality, please update the docstring 
in the source code - it's not like we read the git log for API documentation.

The source code currently says:

 "Build in the OUTPUT directory a symlink tree that is the union of all
 the INPUTS."

and it could be updated to say:

 "Build in the OUTPUT directory a symlink tree that is the union of all
  the INPUTS.  As a special case, if CREATE-ALL-DIRECTORIES?, creates
  the direct subdirectories in the output directory to make sure the
  user can add to them later."

Otherwise LGTM!
