Storing config in the app dir IMHO is not a good idea (btw older Lazarus
did do that.)
Most modern OS have guidelines t say otherwise.
On linux users can not write to that dir at all. On Windows it would
currently work, because lazarus is nt in "Program Files" folder => once
it will be, windows will apply "workarounds" by moving the files to
"Program Data" or similar (newer windows only).
Backup solutions may not find the data in the prg folder, multi user
systems will not work...
No guideline forbids to have a link to the executable in the user
accessible folders.
