%ProgramData% can be most easily described as a mix between /etc and
/usr/share - system-wide configuration and any kind of data that doesn't
fit in the program directory should go there. Also, ProgramData is local to
the machine - it doesn't roam, and normally isn't shared (and unless the
installer changes permissions, it isn't writable by normal users).
