We currently use ~/.chromium, which was picked without thinking too hard.
Fabien already ran into a conflict because he had one of the other
programs named "chromium" installed already using that path.

By http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html
we should obey XDG_CONFIG_HOME, which would default us to something
~/.config/chromium (or google_chrome for the google-provided
binaries).  This seems a bit weird to me, but apparently Google Earth
(among many other non-Google apps that obey the above spec) already
puts its config there.

(By contrast, I believe one of Picasa or Desktop does something with
~/.google/..., which is even weirder than ~/.config to me.)
