Why does TMPDIR have to be in ~/Downloads? It does not make sense to have temporary files in the user's Downloads folder.

Could we please have a chance to override export TMPDIR=$(xdg-user-dir DOWNLOAD)/thunderbird.tmp? Or we can have this temporary folder automatically removed after Thunderbird is closed?
Thank you.

same we have for firefox (~/Downloads/firefox.tmp) and additional thunderbird or firefox one or both writes a mesa_shader_cache folder in ~/.cache but this folders we have in our profile folders and these will be also filled!
Why we get trash on many places?
Please solve this unlogical stuff so soon as possible.
