Disable / Hide ability to browse "Directory" when scheduling reports

Hi Folks,
We would like to either disable or hide the ability to browse the "Directory Namespace" when selecting recipients for scheduled reports.

I've tried removing traverse/read access to the namespace object, but then they can't login.  We have multiple user communities in the namespace and dont want them being able to see the user list.

Restricting them to just entering the email of recipients manually is where we want to be.

Thanks in advance,
-Dan

That's an eye opener.  A little disturbing, actually.  Early on in my Cognos experience I heard that "Cognos is all about security."  So I figured that would be a default setting that can't be overridden.  But I never tested it.
