If you only keep /home, you'll lose your crontab (since they're in
/var/spool/cron, not /home).

In the longer term I would like to see cron-like functionality
provided by and integrated with GNOME, which would fix not only this
but also cleanly allow your cron jobs to access cached authentication
credentials in gnome-keyring, let you pop up notification messages,
etc.
