Can this be changed into using %APPDATA% by default and changing to %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH% based on some MSI switch?

I'll stick to APPDATA but I'm going to introduce a new env var PYTHONUSERBASE. It overwrites the path to the base directory and allows users (and companies) to adjust the user directory for all Python versions.
