Yes, I know that your argument is "putting stuff under /home is bad". My question was, and I'll repeat it: "Where would you suggest?" So far, no one has made a constructive suggestion. I'd say that that might be because there isn't a good default outside of /home. If we take that as correct, then we have two choices: continue the current behavior, or fail and abort with an error. I'd suggest the latter behavior is even less friendly. Cheers, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
