Fundamentally, what I want to know is:
1) Do desktop apps need to be confined? Is it a good idea to confine

Yes.
2) If so, a shared data type is needed for interoperability.
Is ROLE_home_t acceptable for that purpose.

littering user's top-level home directories with application settings
considered harmful.
