The line between settings and data is blurry. For example, in the document
viewer Okular, it remembers the last "save to" directory for future saves. Is
that a setting or history data?

Since KDE already has separate config and data directories, you should file
reports for each application affected. Sometimes it has to be decided, which of
the saved values is data, and which is configuration, so some discussion would
be required. For the cases, where it is clear, it could be fixed one by one.
