Do rely on configured systems in EmulationStation config instead of platform discovery in ~/RetroPie/roms/ because the latter may contain extra directories which do not qualify as valid platform.

I think the current behavior is good enough and has the advantage of listing only the populated folders. For instance, on my system I have only 44 populated ROM folders, while ES has 58 configured, and the difference would be bigger on a new RP system when more emulators/platforms would be available in ES vs. what would be populated by the user.
