Comment:

 So we discussed with dwmw2 and m_stone and we're all convinced .Xauthority
 is fine where it is:

  * /home/olpc/ is supposed to be a writable directory, even if the root
 were mounted read-only

  * We're writing to it only *once* per boot, so flash wearing and
 performance aren't clearly a concern

 The only change we really need is *not* bind mounting it, as is already
 the case in joyride.  It should be done in killjoy too, maybe.
