Problems with that are starting to show, though.
There's a particular Unix account that I've had for
quite a number of years, accumulating much stuff.
Nowadays when I do ls -a ~, I get a directory
listing several screens long...

The whole concept of "hidden" files seems ill-
considered to me, anyway. It's too easy to forget
that they're there. Putting infrequently-referenced
stuff in a non-hidden location such as ~/local
seems just as good and less magical to me.
