On my computer, I run solely as a regular (unprivledged) user. The only third party applications that I run are the ones that allow for drag and drop installation, which I always place in ~/Applications. I refuse to run applications that require installers. [BTW, ~/Applications is a recognized spot for applications. If you create a folder called "Applications" in the top of your home directory, it even gets a system icon.] Personally, I leave everything outside my home directory untouched, because I don’t know how a security or point release updater would react to things not being where they are supposed to be.
