We've had this discussion before, as I recall...
Maybe we'd need to have a section in the manual explaining the
rationale behind choices like these.
Personally, I currently prefer to have to say something explicit than
have a "surprise" addition of files just because I forgot that it was
recursive by default...

And if I only want to add a directory (say, 'data') without adding the
files inside?
