We already have specifiers that resolve to $XDG_STATE_HOME, and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. $XDG_DATA_HOME is in a similar vein. It allows units belonging to the user service manager to correctly look into ~/.local/share. I imagine this would be most useful inside of condition checks (i.e. only run a service on session startup if some data is not found in ~/.local/share) or in the inotify monitoring of a .path unit
