It would be nice to clean up $HOME, radically reduce the number of the subdirectories and config files in the $HOME. If *all* the garbage will be in ~/local/{etc,bin,lib,var/log} then nobody will care if the directory is hidden. My wish is $ ls -ls ~/ drwxrwxr-x. 31 kzak kzak 4096 Jul 26 15:54 . drwxrwxr-x. 13 kzak kzak 4096 Jul 26 15:49 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 kzak kzak 4096 Jul 26 15:54 local and nothing other, .mozilla, vimrc, bash_profile, .xsession-errors, etc. all could be in ~/local, but then the directory should be really visible.
