Comment 8 for bug 1387294

This affects ABI and work-arounds stick like super glue. U1Db already has some tricky compatibility issues delaying major bugs in Query. Hard-coding /home/phablet in the app on the other hand is trivial to change later without affecting anything else.

I'm liking the idea of the enum.

It's true that the desktop is not confined yet. I assume that it won't be long, though - if all apps are confined soon it seems moot to add support now in new code. Do we expect trusted helpers in QML that will still run unconfined and for that matter use U1Db?
