That is bad management then :P

But oh well. If it helps with consistency across operating systems, so be it.
But this has to be implemented upstream at KDE and not downstream in Kubuntu.

So this request should really be directed at bugs.kde.org

Only Kubuntu create those directories in user home, other
distributions doesn't even have those directories. How could this be
in upstream?

Because XDG is upstream to KDE, KDE implements XDG, that is why Digkam will
default to search in the XDG user path for pictures, same goes for Amarok. If
you try saving a file in KOffice or Kate you will get the documents path as
preset path...

And the statement that other distros do not have those directories is simply
wrong, because the underlying specification originiated within redhat so I am
quite sure that at the very least fedora does have those dirs too.
