thanks for the clarifications.  now we know that this is a feature
request (i.e. the current behavior is correct and the new behavior is a
desirable feature) and we have an idea of what files are concerned and
what needs to be done to implement the new behavior.  Wishlist.

Title:
  Current directory used for temporary files

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Confirmed
Status in Hugin default series:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've tried to use hugin and enblend with TIF output. However, this
  generated two TIF files with more than 100MB, which filled up my /home
  partition. However, I have a few gigabytes free at another partition.

  A similar issue could arise if /home was a network-mounted filesystem.
  Even though I would want to operate on files from that filesystem and
  save the final result there, those huge temporary files should be
  stored elsewhere (/tmp or any user-defined place).

  My suggestion: allow the user to specify an alternate temporary
  directory.
