Can we not put another file in the root please? That's what /.well-known/ is for.
And while I'm here, authors of unix tools, please use $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. I'm tired of things shitting dot-droppings into my home directory.

Firefox, Thunderbird, Steam, and more are now all contained within a single folder, instead of making at least one file (dozens in the case of Steam). It's ironic that the authors of flatpak have been very resistant to adopting this particular XDG specification. https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3997 https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/3997
