[X] that I haven't found another request for this feature.
[X] that I have checked whether there are updates for my system available that
contain this feature already.
Description
A quick link to place the game's directory on the D: virtual drivelink under "D:[game directory]" A unified user directory should be placed here as well, linking to $HOME/.share/local/SteamPlayUserFiles/[steamlogin] (or whatever you want to call it.)
A second Quicklink under H: to the user's home directory.
Justification [optional]
This would make accessing the game directory and home directory when doing manual wine commands much easier. This is rather proton specific.
Risks [optional]
Moving the user directory means making a transition copy directory. It also means changing the instructions to purge that directory, and notifying everyone of the new directory structure.
Having a shared user directory for all SteamPlay games may introduce interactions between games, just like on Windows. This can also be a benefit.
Using a separate user directory changes presumes players want to use separate settings/game-play paths for instances of different steam users logging in under the same system username. This may not be a safe assumption.
Making it easier to access to files from the Wine execution environment might allow some users to do stupid stuff. Add a documentation on how to purge the two sets of data directories in order to fix it.
