I completely support this (dotfiles anger me). If you move "$HOME/.wmii" to "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/wmii", as per the XDG spec, then anyone can set the config dir to whatever they want (such as ~/lib) and be dotfile-free. The path looks pretty ugly with all its environs but it's the closest we have to a standard. As a sidenote I was wondering whether we should do this with dmenu_cache. cls
