Hi,

because most people don't need it? Well, I would not be exactly against
making this default, but I'm not sure if $HOME/bin would be the right
one... Since xdg-dirs came around I use $HOME/Applications/bin for that
purpose to keep $HOME cleaner (even though this particular directory
isn't in the scheme...) But I cannot really argue either way...
