Well, some I boycott :-), some I configure to use dot names, and the
rest I simply put in a corner where I won't notice them. The only real
annoyances left are #.bbdb# and #.newsrc.dribble# which keep coming
and going. But I think it's just a question of time and perhaps bug
reports to the relevant developers.

And then someone should augment Nautilus with a list of ignored files
for the home directory, somewhat like .cvsignore. In fact, I've just
filed a bug about that:
