Using the XDG specification directories would not only make the linux package work better as a flatpak, but play nicer with distributions in general. This was mentioned in #30.

XDG_CONFIG_HOME
XDG_DATA_HOME
XDG_CACHE_HOME

flatpak specific docs
XDG Base Directory spec as documented by FreeeDesktop

Looks good, haven't tested. Did you make a new release? Flathub doesn't allow just pointing to master if the source is a git repo.

Nope. Tagging will happen once I hear from the various package maintainers that they do not need any additional code changes in order to proceed.
