Bug Description
Like many other tools, Wicd should be able to use an alternate configuration directory for its clients, with either a command line option or an environment variable (WICD_CONFDIR for example), or better, both of them.
This will allow to put the configuration for example in ~/.config/wicd to clean up the home directory.
Using Wicd 1.7.0, on Archlinux.

I've started a blueprint to move configuration to ~/.config/wicd ; I'll probably not implement the "variable config dir" though.
