As I suggested before, maybe he's just talking about the backup files that
most editors leave behind, such as "msg.61388.00001.tmp~". (My $EDITOR is
set to "emacsclient".) These don't get deleted, and I do have the problem
that they end up cluttering $PWD.

Do you have this problem, or is your environment different than mine?

That's just a minor annoyance, though. I think your argument about not
storing user-generated data in /tmp makes a whole lot of sense, and I agree
now that /tmp is probably the wrong place to put log messages.
