Comment(by chiiph):

 I understand this issue, but I'm not sure what a good default would be. I
 won't revert that commit like the user suggests because it was made to
 solve an issue with TBB.

 The idea is that Vidalia's datadir defaults to ~/.vidalia/, so it looks
 for a vidalia.conf there. The user can set DataDirectory for tor there.
 But I recall rransom saying that that was stupid for a system-wide
 installation.
