I belive this would lead to more applications storing more date there
while expecting it to survive reboots.  We want less of these
applications, not more. :)

Those wanting a different setting for user temporary directories could
consider the libpam-tmpdir and tell it to use /var/tmp/, or set
$TMPDIR and $TMP using other means.

Happy hacking,
