I don't see the point in adding effects, overlays and sprites, they don't really have any game altering effects on gameplay. Also things like "plaster concrete" are in the materials folder, so the above white list would be doing it's job.
Acctually now that I think about it, you could acctually remove "models\players" and "models\weapons" if the default for whitelist is allow_from_disk.
