That's still part of the original complaint, that you've got a plethora of ~/.ssh, ~/.mozilla, and so on... directories, rather than a ~/.config directory with the various application settings as sub-directories inside *it*. There's plenty of times I have to list hidden directories to find things, and suddenly I have to wade through scads of things in my homespace that would be better placed out of the way. -- (This PC runs FC4, my others FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread) Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
