Comment (by ppurka):

 I think what you are really asking about is

 ''What should the zero-configuration scenario, even for advanced users
 look like?''

 I count you as an advanced user since you are using a user-wide ccache,
 and you don't want sage to use any other ccache directory by default. On
 top of that, you want sage to use the ccache directory that you are
 already using, which may or may not be the default ccache directory.

 I think this question should be asked to the general audience in sage-
 devel. There might be people who keep the ~/.sage directory separate,
 along with the rest of their sage installation. For a heavy user of sage
 or for someone running a server, I can contemplate that the ~/.sage (or
 `DOT_SAGE`) will not be small and there might be people who are using a
 different (maybe mounted) directory that is separate from their home
 directory.
