Ok, discussing this with John, it turns out an app can choose arbitrary sounds in the push-helper. So to minimize the security implications it might be a good idea to keep the restriction on XDG_DATA_DIR. Instead, /custom/ should be added to the XDG_DATA_DIR paths. In case we ever want to allow the user setting his custom sound file for ringtones, we'd need to hardlink/copy it to ~/.local/share first.
