Sure, but it's clearly where this should be on an OS X system, by default. And I'm sure there's a different "best place" on Windows (for instance, all of our accounts are network roaming accounts, and you don't want to put anything in ~). And there are probably various right places for various flavors of Linux. Any PEP on this that doesn't take these OS-specific differences into account probably isn't worth reading, IMO.
