One thing I don't understand here: because the dir is underneath $HOME, that means the click hook would have to create the dir for *all* users of the device? What if a user is added later, after a scope was installed? In that case, whatever script runs to add a user would have to make sure that this directory is create along with everything else.
Unless I'm missing something, this seems brittle to me.
