Me too, although for different reasons.  I don't like my working 
directories being filled with clutter by programs.  When I work in Java I 
always have javac aliased to use the -d option to put the .class files in 
a specific directory, and I set my CLASSPATH to refer to that directory. 
I end up with a java-src directory with a tree of .java files under it and 
a java-cls directory with .class files under it.  I also get java-doc 
containing the output of javadoc.

Something similar for Python would be very helpful for me.
