> I disagree with the statement that programs shouldn't write files into the home directory. Many programs store their configuration or their state there. Consider for instance ~/.bashrc and ~/.bash_history. 

To my knowledge, no program (including bash) writes to ~/.bashrc.

The fact that bash does write to ~/.bash_history yields problems, too, if you run multiple instances...
