Just to add some fire... How will tmp clean scripts work? Has anyone
cared about this? I just opened a few tarballs and got 200Mb on ~/tmp.
And tha's 10% of my disk free space. a few days and I get "partition is
full". Before a script cleaned up the stuff every 24 hours on /tmp. So
I didn't care. Now I have to think that you have to clean not only /tmp
but also a few /home/*/tmp's.
In the meantime I would like to note a psychological moment - many users
have tmp for storing archives. It is a method coming from old DOS times
where many people used directory TMP for temporary storage (TEMP was the
swap/drop/trash directory)
