It should not be used for two distinct purposes. A base directory for config files or keys should be read-only. A working directory or a core-dumping directory should be writable for the uid. If one would use the feature and supply relative paths to config files or keys, then it would be wrong if a milter would also cd there unconditionally, making it impossible to control a directory for a core dump. I think a concept of a base directory could cause more trouble explaining than the benefits it would bring.
