On Windows, if you type "set" in a cmd, you can see a lot of environment
variables, such as PATH, HOMEPATH. So I do not think it is nonstandard
insofar as Microsoft is concerned.
Meanwhile, just to make it clear:
1. Does Conkeror now check HOMEPATH when get_home_directory?
2. What do you mean by support HOME? Can I use "~" afterwards?
Another very important thing is to support "/" as path separator. In
fact it is already supported on Windows (in cmd or explorer). But in
Conkeror, I found I could not use it for user_pref('conkeror.rcfile',
'd:/emacs/home/.conkerorrc')
