The idea is that such a directory only contains the user's 
applications/services, which would be default be empty.

Right, it does not address the configuration vs implementation problem 
that we have in almost all of our descriptors. So all existing items 
that we deploy as "part" of the profile would remain in their current 
location.  The profile service helps in providing a pure user 
configuration interface, so this is a step in the right direction.
