There are lots of .dotfiles cluttering my home directory.

No doubt some of them are useful.

Many, though, are probably remnants of packages of years past -- packages 
I installed long ago, no longer need, and have removed.

Is there any way of identifying which packages are using which dotfiles?

And which ones are obsolete -- the user equivalent of configuration 
files, which are properly tracked by the package manager?

Should there be?
