Subject: journaled quota file question

While looking to ext3/4 quota code I'm wondering
Why do we have to place journaled quota file on fs root?
In some situations it may be useful to place it deeper for example:
/root/dir/quota_file
The only reason what comes in to my mind is that some one
may rename parent folder rename("/root/dir", "/root/dir2")
Is this the only reason?
