I'm not sure I agree with this. The `~/.cache` directory is a standard, and it's usually the first place I check when I suspect my disk usage is too high. I do most of my personal work on a 15-inch MacBook Air with 16 GB of memory but only a tiny 256 GB disk.
I agree that putting cache files in `~/.cargo/cache` is worse than using the global `~/.cache`, but imagine the chaos if everyone decided to add their cache directory directly under the home folder without putting a dot in front of it.
Also, I believe the XDG spec should be followed on both macOS and Linux. Doing it differently on Mac is just a pain.
