Ah okay! Sure, on the one hand it's logical to put custom ambiences somewhere into the home folder and not under /usr/share/ambience, which would require root privileges every time when accessed. But why blocking harbour apps from accessing this (to my mind) quite unsensitive information? Does not make a lot of sense to me...

I will try to follow eson's approach. Maybe I find a way to avoid a whole reboot...
