I can think of a use for a home directory for www-data outside of
webspace: a .netrc file. There is a Python module for reading them,
and they are useful for storing low-security authentication data, such
as the consumer key and secret of my test twitter app. That way my
script can read the key and secret from .netrc whether I am running
the script manually, or whether it is being run as a CGI script.
