I still like making /home its own file system, and if I'm running a

I've done this for close to 20 years (19 years this April, to be
exact); my current /home has been copied mostly intact (some dotfile
stuff left behind, of course) since my Red Hat Linux 4 days.
It makes certain operations simpler and safer; things like completely
reinstalling the OS if required aren't nearly as problematic with a
separate /home (I did this to be able to change / from ext3 to xfs once,
for an example).
