To be clear, we're copying from a jaws version to same jaws version.

The only problem I see with copying the entire user folder is that you'll then
end up with user versions of app scripts that are compiled for different JAWS
versions than their shared counterparts. Confusing at the least (if you need to
edit code and the lines mismatch, for example); or worse, you're now missing
some new feature the shared version implements.
