Well, the Delphi\Bin might well be an option, since it will meet your first criteria if Delphi has its Start In directory set to Delphi\Bin which IIRC it does by default... ;-)
Actually I think I missed a step... I /think/ it checks the application's home directory as well, which is fine for Delphi... but totally not for programs written in Delphi. Try running a program that expects a BPL in the Delphi\Bin dir from outside of Delphi.
