Title:
  User screenlets should be under ~/.local/share/screenlets

Status in Screenlets — individual widgets development:
  New
Status in Screenlets — a framework for desktop widgets:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  According to XDG base dir standard user data is under ~/.local/share.
  It's xdg_data_home in Python.

  In future ~/.screenlets should be moved to ~/.local/share/screenlets.
  Application should try to move screenlets directory by asking
  permission from user before moving. Symlink should be added in the
  place of old directory linking to the new directory. This can be
  removed after couple of years or so...
