Just a thought:


/etc/profile.d/tmpdir.sh:

# For privacy and security, set temporary directories to ~/tmp on local



There's actually been some work going on on giving each user their own /tmp namespace via the kernel's CLONE_NEWNS capability and a PAM module, AIUI. To the system administrator this could appear as /tmp/<username>. I think the problem is in getting later mounts to actually appear in the cloned namespace.



We probably should be putting out such information on a roadmap page for Fedora instead of waiting for related topics to pop out. If we cant get a general roadmap out, we can probably look at short term goals for every Fedora version in a wiki. will this work out?
