$HOME, not so sweet $HOME
not adhering to a (reasonably well defined and accepted) standard kind of is a bug to me.

Resolved: the standard is for dot files to go in $HOME.

It is not reasonably well defined, it is even broken by design, and if it was so accepted we wouldn't have this conversation.

Look up how XDG_RUNTIME_DIR gets set. Its a pam_systemd(8) thing and thus specific to GNU/Linux. So if you approach the non-glibc or *BSD folks with "please follow the XDG spec", you will likely not receive a nice answer.
