My company does not allow us to keep personal files inside our personal folder. Something about the roaming profiles getting to large.

With Dropbox I am able to set the destination of the folder during the install. Is there anyway to tell Ubuntu One where to put the Ubuntu One folder?

I don't want to add external folders to the sync list, I just want to control where the installer creates the Ubuntu One folder.

Otherwise I can't use the service :(
