      It seems QtWebEngineProcess always creates ~/.QtWebEngineProcess, without e.g. respecting XDG_DATA_DIR on Linux.

      Instead, I think it should use QStandardPaths::writableLocation(QStandardPaths::DataLocation) to use a more correct place, unless there's a good reason for it to be hardcoded to the home directory I'm missing?
