I realise it is SuSE policy to not clean these directories,
That policy really has to go. Seriously, how could you expect a server to operate unattended with that kind of policy in place? This default policy is just ludicrous.
I don't think openSUSE is meant to be used on servers. There is an enterprise edition for that. If you still want to use openSUSE on a server, then I suggest you start using things like Puppet or Chef to harden the system which is geared more towards everyday use.
I've put most of my /tmp file duration at 2 days. I've found there is just nothing that I will use after 2 days.
I have 60GB of /tmp and I don't care how long the files lie in there. How is my argument more or less worth than your's? A small script (which you could share) should be enough to configure a standard openSUSE system to retain files for only N days. Then everyone can decide whether they want to run it or not.
