This of course breaks any topic in flight that adds more places to
use expand_user_path().
I think Fabian's "ssh signing" is not as ready as this topic, and it
can afford to wait by rebasing on top of this topic. By the time
"ssh signing" gets into testable shape (right now, it does not pass
tests when merged to 'seen'), hopefully the "expand install-prefix"
topic may already be in 'next' if not in 'master'.
In the meantime, I am adding this band-aid at the tip of this topic
to help these two topics play together better.
Thanks.
