[Dovecot] alternate rawlog directory

Hello,

In rc2 sources, the rawlog directory seem to be hard-coded to be
looked for in $HOME.

I'd like to have a way to centralized the place where rawlog files are, in order to be able :

  . to rotate them more easily
  . not to leave them at the user's reach
  . not to have to enter the user's directory to read them

I'd like to have a layout similar to this :

  /var/log/dovecot.rawlog/
			 /user1/20060708-093811-45581.in
			 /user1/20060708-093811-45581.ou
			 /user1/...
			 /user2/20060708-093811-45590.in
			 /user2/20060708-093811-45590.out

What do you think about that idea ?  

Is there already a patch to do that, should I change rawlog.c or is
ther already a regular way do do that ?

Thanks
