I'm not sure if this is a defect or a conscious decision so I 
thought I'd ask the question first. Is there a reason why Dub on 
Windows uses the APPDATA environment variable, rather than 
LOCALAPPDATA? The APPDATA variable points to the roaming profile 
directory which means that my entire Dub cache is uploaded when I 
log out, then downloaded again when I log back in. Should I raise 
a github issue for this? Seems like an easy fix for a 1.0.0 
release.
