If you are jailbroken then you can remove this limitation! All we need to do is add a Symlink into the folder!
When you are finished you will see a shiny new "Root" Folder in MobileFinder that you can use to navigate to /
Observe the Shinyness:

AND

Things you will need:
A Jailbroken 2.0 or 2.0.1 iPod Touch or iPhone.
MobileFinder ($2.00, but completely worth it... trust me... I'm quite froogle)
WinSCP (Current Version)
Step 1:
Open up WinSCP and login as you would normally. If you don't know how then check out this tutorial on youtube
Step 2:
Navigate to MobileFinder's Application folder (it will be inside /private/var/mobile/applications) and then open the Documents directory.
Step 3:
Create a new link (right click > new > link)
In the first line put Home, and in Line 2 type "/" (with no ")
Now you have modded MobileFinder to work anywhere! Congratulations!
Optional Step:
If you want to make a fast and easy link to access your iPod directly from windows (without winscp) then do this:
1) Tap the transfer icon in the bottom right
2) Click Start when you see this:

3) Now right click on your desktop and go to New>Shortcut
4) Type in: explorer.exe ftp://000.000.0.000:0000 (replace the 0's with the correct number highlighted in green on your iPods Screen. It will most likely be something like 192.168.1.00:2121)
Now you will have a desktop icon to access your iPod with through XP or vista's built in explorer.
Enjoy!
