Another similar case I've encountered is with the home directory.
The shell respects HOME in performing tilde expansion but lineedit
doesn't have access to the shell variable so uses getpwuid when
trying to display '~' in the prompt.

A user who had HOME set to a different directory than that reported
by getpwuid didn't like the result.
