+<PRE>I am using precisely the same solution as morgan: for each bootable 
+file-system its own /home directory, all my permanent data live in a 
+separate (non-bootable) file-system (yes, and with binary uid/gid-to- 
+alphanumeric name mappings that match).
+
+Several advantages to this solution:
+- coexistance between conflicting version-dependant private folders (the 
+problem of Barry. for instance .kde4/..., but the same problem may 
+arrise for other applications)
+- sharing of permanent data between bootable file-systems (multi-boot 
+between different OSses - or cauldron and Mageia1)
+- ease for backup - I make daily backups only of the permanent data 
+file-system.
+
+To make life easy with such a solution, I use a script that, when I 
+install a new system, creates links form its /home directory to 
+directories in the file-system that contains my permanent data. (Except 
+for the user to be declared at sys-install, uid/gid-to-name mapping can 
+also be standardised with the help of simple scripts - not really 
+necessary if there are just some few users.)
+
+De-facto, my /home directory has only 3 functions: (1) contain files and 
+directories like .bashrc or .kde4/, (2) contain the links to my 
+permanent data directories, (3) for use as support for scratch data that 
+is not backed up and does not need to be carefully structured.
