I am not particular about the location of the policy. Any > comments on the suggested policy itself? We didn't get to this in the meeting today, so we'll try and work this out over the list. Personally, I have no major concerns with requiring default apps to support xdg configuration dirs, particularly since most already do. However, I don't think it's a pressing concern for F21 and most of the work should happen in the upstream projects. That is particularly true for Firefox and NSS/NSPR. The rest seem like quick enough work, but we might wish to grant exceptions for those 3 if we do adopt such a policy.
