Peter -

Nate and I are in agreement that the goal is to eliminate that
directory, so I don't want to put effort into automating its creation.

https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/issues/1576

If you wish to open a PR that does this though, I would be happy to
merge this. The best place to ensure this directory exists is in the
drmaa runner where it is being used.
