No! 1. The user's home directory is sacrosanct for any process which does not run under the user's own ID (the backend runs as root or as a system user like "lp"). 2. It cannot work via network. I.e. when the user sends a fax by "printing" it from his workstation to a remote fax/print server where HPLIP and CUPS actually run. Even if this is not yet supported it will be supported in the future (as far as I did understand the HPLIP authors) and then such dirty and ugly hacks will fortunately break. Of course there is a big difference whether a particular user finds software which uses such evil hacks in the Internet and installs it on his particular workstation or whether such a kind of software is distributed by a company like HP or distributed and installed by default by a Linux distributor.
