BTW, it seems you are stopping one directory too late, in that in
order to stop Emacs looking up things like "/afs/.hg", I have to an
add an element of the form "\\`/afs/[^/]+\\'".

In other words, locate-dominating-stop-dir-regexp is the last
directory in which you _do_ scan, whereas it might be simpler if it
were the first _not_ scanned.

I would also suggest adding /home and perhaps /nfs, as well as /afs
and /net, to the default. Actually, I don't see why the default stop
should not just match "\\`/[^/]+\\'".
