Bug ID: 244756
Summary: x11/sddm: /etc/ isn't a place for home directories
Product: Ports & Packages
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Individual Port(s)

The UIDs entry for sddm places its home directory in /usr/local/etc/sddm/home:
sddm:*:219:219::0:0:SDDM Display Manager
user:/usr/local/etc/sddm/home:/usr/sbin/nologin
This seems like a bad idea, since /usr/local/etc/ normally holds configuration
files, and is often managed via systems designed for that purpose; having it
contain a home directory is liable to cause unintended results.
It seems to me that the home directory should probably be somewhere under /var/
