I would think that most of those files you can delete safely. As you said some
programs store some temporary information in /tmp so you should be a little
careful and not blindly delete all files, since you might delete one that is
still in use. There are not put in your home directory because they are only
temporary and should get deleted once the application that created those files
exits. On redhat systems there is a program that runs every night that checks
how old your files are in /tmp and deletes them if they are too old. You can
therefore also simply wait :)
