Please consider having stow look for its global configuration files first in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/config/stow/stowrc and $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/config/stow/stow-global-ignore.  If it doesn't find the files there, it could fall back to the current behaviour of checking $HOME/.stowrc and $HOME/.stow-global-ignore.
