Bill> Sure, but it's clearly where this should be on an OS X system, by Bill> default. I think only for stuff that is a Mac-ish GUI app type of thing and/or that plays with Mac's distinct APIs (Carbon, Cocoa, whatever). Would you install, for example, a personal version of gcc there? I wouldn't, but that's just me.
Is that really the question? I'd agree with you there. But if you wanted a standard per-user place where gcc would look for custom filters of some sort, on OS X, I'd think it would be appropriate. Which makes more sense, to me, as an analogue of a per-user site-packages directory.
