Mac OSX has a home directory, and I don't see any Mac users finding it 
difficult, so why would KDE users?

Having separate "Documents", "Music", "Pictures", etc, directories makes 
sense, but trying to spare the user from the psychic pain of a "Home" 
directory is nonsense.

And what about usability for intermediate, experienced and advanced 
users?
