  Please support the XDG base directory specification

Bug description:
  Please support the XDG base directory specification. It looks like
  compiz in Ubuntu 13.04 Alpha uses ~/.compiz to store its cache. The
  cache should be stored in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/compiz instead

  This will make backups noticeably easier and will help reduce the
  excessively cluttered home directory problem.

  spec/latest/ar01s03.html or
