FWIW, using this scheme would worry me because a single
misplaced/poorly thought out rm -rf would wipe out both my workspaces
(usually OK, or at least noncatastrophic) and my database (potentially
very very bad - I rely heavily on disconnected commits, so losing a
database could mean potentially losing weeks of work that haven't been
sync'ed elsewhere). Having them in a . directory in ~ means the only
way something like that would occur is if I also just took out my
entire home directory, at which point my monotone databases will
probably be down to 10 or 20 on the list of things I should be pissed
about.
