for what it is worth:
i tested the "suggest per-user directory and create if neccessary"
feature on both linux and W32, and it does work nicely¹ and as expected².

¹ the main issue with W32 is, that if I extracted the Pd-zip myself
(into %ProgramFiles%), i keep write-permissions on the embedded extra/
folder. thus deken will suggest to install into the application-specific
search path (since it is allowed to write there).
it correctly suggests %AppData%\Pd if I ungrant write-permissions to the
extra/ folder.
i haven't tested with the Pd-installer.

² it meets *my* expectations (and - according to an IRC chat - roman's
as well). probably your expectations are different.
