simply that? is it because you chmoded /usr/lib/pd or because you run 
everything as root?

I agree that it's a nice feature, for it would allow the separation of 
pd-extended's default config and whatever a user wants to do.

However, I've not planned this at all in the pdrc editor. How could the 
pdrc editor handle the edition of, say, just ~/.pdrc, but taking into 
account the fact that /usr/lib/pd/pdrc is going to be loaded, in a way not 
too confusing for the user?

If you want to try the pdrc editor, try this:
