How can I change StandaloneApp's .settings directory?

Here is a post with a workable solution, but I agree with the author @richie, that there should be a better solution:

Standalone plugin .settings file in the root of Application Support

I’m sure I read somewhere amongst JUCE docs or here on the forum that it’s considered bad practice to pollute the root of ~/Application Support with application specific files, they instead should live within a sub folder, however JUCE doesn’t seem to adhere to this advice with the default standalone plugin build. I figured changing the options.folderName here solved that issue : https://github.com/WeAreROLI/JUCE/blob/master/modules/juce_audio_plugin_client/Standalone/juce_StandaloneFilterApp.c…
