Think he meant for opening/saving of new pov script files not image output.
From what I can tell the answer is no.  I tried to see if I could tell
POV-Ray in the Windows registry to use a folder I wanted to use and found
nothing to cause it to see another place.  Actually I usually get the
C:\Windows folder, just sometimes the Documents, I want it to be in the
C:\Program Files\POV-Ray for Windows v3.1\scenes\ folder.
What's happening is the currently accessible folder Windows sees is getting
pointed to apparently, just took another look at where it wanted to go and
was C:\Temp this time.  I had recently used that folder for moving some
files around outside for Zip compressing and image opening.
