If you want the user to be able to change his own avator (in general a

In general it should be readable also by non-root users, and writable only by the user himself and root/gumd, that's why $HOME is not so great. I know many distributions default to making $HOME world readable and with typical umask people then end up exposing all their files to everyone, but I don't think this is generally desirable feature.

Point of avatar is to show user's picture also to other people.

At least I have my home directories with access mode 0700 and gumd also defaults to this.
