Hmmm, there is a lot of information in these path for now lol.

usttrace should also be consider for a change I think. It is unusable to 
my opinion having this date format of 24 numbers... and only numbers 
that in a long run become human "not readable".

So how about this :

${HOME}/.usttraces/$hostname-$app_name/20101109-152301-$tracename-$PID

Regrouping all traces from the same apps and host.. ?
