Ive been meaning to get some clarification on whether
or not I can rely on .compiz existing.  When I first wrote
the ini plugin, I though I could.

Its more a global directory so I do not create it, but I can
if its required.

Should I be creating this directory?  OR should it be the
responsibility of core to make sure this exists (it is defined
there)


You're right, it should be the core I guess, since it's an overall directory
and if each plugin which wants to use it needs check for its existence it
becomes a big amount of duplicated code. Maybe the core could create it on
demand?
