Re: XDG_BASE_DIRECTORY specification

The XDG spec [0] says that, if the env vars are unset,
or set to an empty value, a compliant application
should fall back to the default value given by the spec. 

So I guess the answer is that, since we don't need to use
non-standard directories, setting the env vars to the same
value as the fallback/default doesn't make much sense
(apart from maybe working as a band-aid solution for
programs that don't follow the spec fully and
don't implement the fallback).

Sincerely,
A.FI.
