I'm pretty against ~/Applications. Nothing installs there by default. Why would we make an installer that's targeted at getting new users up and running install in a place other than the normal / Applications? Sure ~/Applications is _better_ but it's not _normal_.

If they're advanced enough to want it in ~/Applications then they can move it.

This is for newbies...generally speaking, so we'll do ~/ Applications...maybe offer a choice...dunno yet.

I was the same until recently when I switched to a new machine and forgot to copy over eclipse for the umteen'th time. So I moved it to my home directory instead.

If eclipse kept it's plugins and other global config in my home directory I would have no reason to keep it there also.
welcome to one of the longest-standing debates in eclipse history
