(In reply to David Edmundson from comment #10)
> Why?
To avoid clutter in my home directory. Dotfiles/Dotdirs are useful, but if
every application just keeps on dumping their stuff there, it's a pain to
browse. (Also, some applications like Firefox don't filter out dotfiles in its
file save dialog.) The XDG Base Directory Specification that AFAIK KDE as a
project intends to support is 7 or more years old and Qt4/KDE4 have been
deprecated for 4(?) years now.

I guess that at some point this writing out of .kde4/... will cease. I assume
that this will be done with deprecation first, where the functionality is still
available if explicitly compiled-in or configured, before final removal. So
implementing my feature request is essentially preparing for that already.
