Have you considered disabling copy-on-write for the /home subvolume? It is (in my limited experience) the primary thing that can suprise users in a nasty way under /home.
The thought crossed my mind, but I don't think it makes sense here
Unlike /var, the chances of users having data which will benefit from NoCoW is relatively small - how many users have relational databases stored their /home?
That number might not be as smallas you think ;-)
KMail / Akonadi uses a MySQL database, so nearly all KMail users have a database in their home directory (unless they change the Akonadi config to use the system-wide MySQL or PostgreSQL).
The various desktop searches like Baloo also use something that looks like a database to me ;-)
Baloo disables CoW for its database, as does Akonadi. Not sure about Firefox (which uses a bunch of sqlite3 DBs).
