All- Is there a way to change the upload default directory structure (/database/files) to organize files per user_id instead? something along the following lines ~galaxy-dist/database/files/postgresql_user_id0 ~galaxy-dist/database/files/postgresql_user_id1

Thank you JC

I can see that being useful for a quick way to look at per user disk usage - although you'd have problems counting with shared data. Is that your motivation? Another concern would be overly long filenames, which has a direct impact on the command line lengths used to call the tools - there are OS limits on this. Peter
