The .data directory will allow:

hiding the Manifest file, which is not that useful to see lying around.
other metadata files (like local config .data/config to override global)
data commands to be run from dataset subdirectories
a safe (local) directory to place temporary files
potentially using an embedded git repo in the future (for detailed version history, etc)
