--- Comment #4 from Ty Smith <kde at m.tysmith.me> ---
"Home directories are in `/var/home/foo` on Fedora Kinoite."

This is true, but it also symlinks to /home/foo automatically since most things
expect that. It even defaults to setting users home to the symlink in
/etc/passwd.  

"Can you try editing the `/etc/passwd` entry for your user and setting its home
dir to `/var/home/foo`?"
I did try this with a user that home it set to /var/*, saw no difference in the
behavior of the Konsole issue reported.

When you select "start in current directory" in profiles, it goes to to source
folder, not to the symlink the user was in when they initated the flow. Have
tested outside of home altogether. ie, /var/test -> /etc/test
