Is that the purpose? I thought the purpose was to artificially restrict
the use of some set of functions to another set of functions to avoid
function namespace pollution. I don't think the purpose is to stop the
user having access to the files in the private directories. They need
read access to the files to use them in any case, so what is the
difference between copying the files in the private directory to
somewhere else, or using a sharedprivate function to obtain access to
them? This is not a security issue, and so no I don't think it defeats
the purpose of private directories..
