Personally I wouldn't want to see yet another .directory in home. Endless fractionation of config is one of the things about unix that irks me. This is not to say that there aren't perfectly valid use cases for YACF (yet another config file). Perhaps this would be best served by a new shell configurator package. Or possibly some other already existing shell manager. If someone had a use for a non standard shell config, he could install and run shell-configurator which would walk him through all of the various possibilities for shell initialization. Whether to use foo.d, special files to include, color, etc. It could also save these settings to its own init file that could be applied to new users for organizational use or just to backup your own settings. Thanks.
