(Get the code!)
I agree with Jeppe here.
Yes, configuration files and files caching internal state belong in hidden directories ( ~/.config/zim and ~/.cache respectivly according to the XDG directory layout standard). However the notebook themselves I consider as user data that also can be edited with other programs. I think all user data should be in visible directories.
( My rule of thumb is that if I backup all visible directories from my home dir I should have all my data. All I loose with a HD crash then is application config that is easy to re-create when needed. )
Currently zim suggests "~/Notes" as default directory. I like that more than "Zim-Notes", but I recognize adding the application name could be good to distinguish from other note taking programs.
