Comment (by screamingdev):

 @brutalenemy666 this is the thing that I want to avoid. The uploads-
 directory is for uploads.
 What's missing is a thing like "wp-content/data" or else where plugins can
 store their shit.

 Right now there is no proper location of other data than the uploaded
 ones.
 Where does a plugin store it's own cache or whatever files?

 wp-content is no solution either IMHO:

 wp-content/my-plugin-floods-this
 wp-content/mine-too
 wp-content/premium-advanced-file-storage-mess
 (and 40 more)
