Yes. It is waiting for you to OK a name (I hate commiting code and
changing names a few days later).

Stephen proposed `user-config-file' or `find-user-config-file', and I
like them, but I think you said it is not only for configuration
files. So, some permutation of `user', `local, `data' and `directory'.

What about the variable `user-emacs-directory'? That is surely not the
"best name for it".

Perhaps we could name the variable `user-data-directory' and the
function `find-user-data-file'.
