i'm sorry, i completely disagree. user-space tools should not be
polluting the rest of the system. having a directory, like /tmp, that
is writable by everyone is not the same thing as having a directory
that is owned by some specific user.

not to mention, i may have my home folder permissions set so that i'm
the only one that can read files. if i mount some share with fuse, i'm
expecting it to be just as protected as any of my other files, whereas
if it were in something like /media, it would likely not be.

the reason why the file system hierarchy is so nice is because i know
(as the one who has root access to a particular machine) that all
files related to a particular user are going to be in that user's home
folder (as defined in /etc/passwd), instead of spread out all over the
system.
