I think about this every once in a while.
The downside of .cache is that most cleanup softwares and scripts delete it completely which is not desired since our cache can go above Gigabytes of space and no one would want to redownload everything over and over.
On the other hand, the home directory hidden folders are usually used for the main apps like .nv, .mozilla, etc. So having .hezar folder in the home dir messes up the view even though it's hidden.
I'm down with changing the path to somewhere inside .cache but this would be a backward incompatible change.
