[Bug 1131136] [NEW] For human beings. Telepathy, use ~/.cache folder better

Public bug reported:

In my home folder I have a:

  .cache/telepathy

folder that contains certain app related data. I also have the folders:

  .cache/wocky
  .cache/folks

that seem to be 'telepathy' related. Should these folders not be stored
within:

  .cache/telepathy

Use of a users home folder like this is bad IMHO. Having hard to figure
out folders and what it belongs to can cause confusion and may lead to
user security concerns and deletion that would affect an application and
user experience.
