I'd like to change the default directory for newly generated keys(via the Setup Wizard for now) from the system specific APPDATA ones, which currently are:

I agree with others that changing this is a bad idea for various
reasons.
Changing the location is a breaking change.
As others have pointed out
- `~/Documents/` is for user created _documents_. (They can be
mailed, copied to a different system etc.) Keys are
configuration.
- The keys should not look like documents (which may be deleted
when old, e.g.)
- The "dotfiles" or "Application Support/" are exactly where
this kind of configuration is expected (beyond `/etc` maybe, but
that usually implies system deamons)
I suggest you don't make this change. I can see a `~/.tarnsap/`
location, but then again, it's probably not worth changing for
anymore.
