There are no definite plans at the moment, but personally I think the  
rationale for hiding the home folder isn't as strong as it was in the  
early days of JDS.  Ultimately, though, it probably depends what  
Solaris marketing tells us about the target audience for the next  
release of desktop, when the time comes.

Cheeri,
Calum.
