If you want to save settings for a directory it always stores it in this directory in a
file called .directory.

This maybe makes sense for most cases. However if you do not have the right to write to a directory this does not work. Why are informations about directories not stored in the home folder???

Or at least it would make sense if it would do such settings in the home folder if the user has no write permission.
