It is interesting that the freedesktop people, who are sort of becoming

New apps are now tending to keep their config cruft under

I think I wasn't clear in my hatred.
I like having all my configurations in one directory. As someone else
mentioned, it is easier to keep things under revision control that way.
I just want said directory to be invisible to a normal 'ls'. '.config'
is great. 'Library' is mildly irritating (or would be, if it was the
only required directory--as it is, with it being just one of many, it
is hateful).
