I suspect those options exist strictly for testing new datasets.

I'm surprised that Pooch seems to be focused on data that is bundled in code repositories. It seems like that could easily lead to bloated repositories (though I guess xarray data is bigger than image data, for example).","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,626083981

As mentioned in that issue, we could definitely vendor a copy of appdirs if desired. Or we could pick some simple heuristic. In practice I think `~/.cache` is fine. It's only standard on Linux, but I have a handful of directories there on my Mac laptop already.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,626083981

I would suggest just creating the full directory tree, e.g., with `os.makedirs(path, exist_ok=True)`. I don't think we want to let this be inconsistent.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,626083981
