You mean something like someone who writes a script that does blind cd 
to the directory and then proceeds to delete the contents? Customer's 
system started crashing at noon every day after they did an OS update 
that eliminated the target directory.  The script was kicked of by cron 
and the cd would fail and since they where not checking if it succeeded 
or if they ended up in the right place the script proceed to delete 
everything from its current directory, which unfortunately was where all 
the libraries live... oopps...
