I don't necessarily disagree with that, but the question is whether such
an effort to "be consistent" would incur too much cost -- for instance,
inconsistency with other modern apps, or ignoring user-specified global
settings.

I think that Stefan has a good point when he says we should rely on
existing mechanisms to the extent that they work acceptably.

I'd like to know what e.g., Gnome apps do in this case, but I'm not sure
how to get Gnome to ignore my settings and use its defaults (even if I
change HOME, still seems to use my settings).
