As far as I understand the XDG specs:
- the cloud storage cache should go under ~/.cache/Subsurface/
- the configuration file should go under ~/.config/Subsurface/
- some other things should go under ~/.local/share/Subsurface/

To me, that really scatters user data over many directories for
little-to-no benefit. Instead, I'd like an app called Subsurface to
simply write its user data under ~/.subsurface/: that's a unique
directory for me to symlink, backup, or rename, for instance in case
there's an issue I want to debug with a fresh profile.

But that's just my two cents.
