Hi,
Won't that break configs/increase clutter for people who share their home
directories between two distributions since they'll have to restort to
symlinks to make stuff work?
I myself have gentoo and ubuntu installed and am sharing my home directory
between them. I have to use ubuntu for maintaining a couple of packages and
I can't live without gentoo :)



Yes it would. Also, files beginning with . are not shown unless you
use the -A/-a flag and therefore the traditional place for them is ~.
Although having a ~/.config directory might make ~ look a bit cleaner,
the use of .app directories instead of .app files, which is usual
these days, helps to minimize the clutter.

Also, if you have a .config directory to put all these files in, ~
becomes less cluttered but ~/.config becomes VERY cluttered!
