Yes, that is a limitation. I understand that this wouldn't be needed for the .user folder. However, the .user folder may not work, too because plugins may require relative files or simply not make use of the API (like the cscope plugin). So you still (most likely will) have clutter. Another case that won't work with XML on the other hand are the build logs in HTML...

Aaargh... we have so many cases... And btw: Talking about the debugger raises another one: What, if we want to have target related temporary settings, like connectivity options per target - that does make sense you know...

It could be saved per target in the file.

About cscope, I suppose the plugin can be modified to generate its files in .user.
The valgrind plugin also generates a xml file, which could be save in .user.
Another benefit of using a directory is that files could be shared/backuped and so on (even if not supported by us :) )
