The form Glenn suggested would place remember-data-directory under use= r-emacs-directory, which is documented to contain "additional per-user= Emacs-specific files", not merely configuration files.

These are not Emacs-spec= ific files.

=A0It's bet= ter to make this the default location instead of cluttering up users' h= ome directories, especially with non-hidden files, without their permission= .

It's data they'v= e specifically entered, and a remember back-end they've specifically co= nfigured.

=A0See also bug 13870 for a recent precedent.=A0

The wrong solution, I think, though since t= he previous value was a dot-file, the new one may as well be considered Ema= cs-specific (although by comparison with .tagline or .project, perhaps not)= .
