I spent my time doing all the padding on the compact list, so +1 from me.

It should definitely default to the same directory, but removing the
option just seems silly. It's tucked away in a relevant KCM, not
bothering a user unless they look for it. It allows a bit more
flexibility and not really at any cost so I don't see any reason to
remove it.
