Just came across this in an app in the standard queue so figured I'd
ask how we intend to handle this in click.

Basically the game is installed in /opt/app-name/  the save data at
the end of the level is set to write in the directory that the app is
in.  Because the user is non-root the data can't save the
/opt/app-name folder and crashes.

How will this be handled in click?  I would suggest at least
documenting this somewhere so that the devs are aware upfront where
and how we expect them to store data from their applications.
Something like ~/.cache/click-apps/com.me.myapp/  would be my
suggestion as a nice save file format but I thought I would ask as I
hit it :)

You make it, I'll break it!

I love my job :)
