Why should games be treated differently that other applications? Ie, why
not just put stuff under $XDG_DATA_HOME ?
You mentioned "but there's also obvious
advantages to having saved games in their own folders.", but I don't see any
obvious advantages (and some disadvantages, including the possible
proliferation of proposals for more $XDG_<some_new_kind_of_app>_DIR using
similar logic).
