Description

Most, if not all applications support moving the data directory.
The docs should get extended to properly explain how to move existing data directories.

Not sure if this should be done in the main docs, or in the Readme of the repo of the software itself.

Identify which applications and existing data-move procedures need coverage; done means the selected documentation clearly explains how to move existing data directories.
