Great, It works. Like you said, the directory is no longer empty once I modify the environment. 

Thanks

The directory shouldn't be removed, that is a bug. I just sent a patch.
Anyway, the directory will stay empty even after applying the patch.
That is a side effect of only storing the differences to the default environment. Once you have made changes they will show up there.
