This would solve most of the problems in scanning organized collection of
games when the game has a lot of directories.
I suppose there are some corner cases like in day of the tentacle you can
play a version of maniac mansion and it's included in the game files, but
those are rare. 99% of the games keep the signature file scanned in the
top dir, and when there are exceptions they're rare.
A alternative idea is to remember the child dir where you entered at the
top level, and when you find the game, skip the whole subtree and start
checking another.
I think this does not happen already, but I'm unsure.
