The inconsistency will be fixed: "relative path of the parent folder" being defined as the full path of the parent folder, stripped from the path of the indexed folder, if a file is found directly inside the indexed folder, then the relative path of the parent folder will be empty. Perhaps his hidden preference could be fully supported in the future, although this is not our current plan.

We will add a different hidden preference to store the full path of the parent folder, instead of its name or relative path. In my opinion this adds too many irrelevant words in the "other metadata" field, especially the home folder name (which is usually the user's name), so this will certainly never end up as supported feature.
