Hi Olivier,

Yes, this is a standard behaviour.

As per
http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html

"""
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user
specific configuration files should be stored. If $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is
either not set or empty, a default equal to $HOME/.config should be
used.
"""

so, when it is not set, it defaults to ~/.config/appname
