I just tested this. Setting tmp dir in preferences to "/tmp" will still
dump the nona-output (which is one of the steps that could produce lots
of very big files) in the current directory.

Title:
Windows uses current directory for temporary files
Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
Confirmed
Status in Hugin tip series:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I've tried to use hugin and enblend with TIF output. However, this generated
two TIF files with more than 100MB, which filled up my /home partition.
However, I have a few gigabytes free at another partition.
A similar issue could arise if /home was a network-mounted filesystem. Even
though I would want to operate on files from that filesystem and save the final
result there, those huge temporary files should be stored elsewhere (/tmp or
any user-defined place).
My suggestion: allow the user to specify an alternate temporary directory.
