I have  been thinking about this too. I know it is common nowadays to 
put /home on a separate partition to make it easier to preserve it during 
a upgrade/reinstall. When you have to do a upgrade/reinstall you will 
usualy want to preserve what is in /usr/local too. So I think it might be 
a good idea to use /home/local if what is in there should be used by 
different users or /home/$user/bin or something like that if only one 
user is going to use it.
