Yes, please no more ~/.xyz dirs. One problem is that the spec only talks about
DATA_DIR -> e.g. rdf files, docs, ... equiv of e.g. /usr/share
CONFIG_DIR -> settings, equiv of /etc
CACHE_DIR -> e.g. a plugin cache, equiv of /var/cache
but there is nothing for plugins (equiv of /usr/lib)
I'll write to xdg-list ...

(I've never really got on with the idea of
using ~/.ladspa instead of
~/ladspa -- these are perhaps substantial binary files, why hide them
in a configuration directory? -- but it seemed to be widespread for
LADSPA hosts at the time DSSI was thought up, so we copied it for the
first DSSI hosts.)
It would be nice to stick with this, but it doesn't seem to really have
a place for plugins:
