Brilliant. Thanks.
Use the -walletdir=
You can use symlink and put the wallet wherever you want (you should make a backup though before attempting anything).
If you are in Windows:
1. Move wallet.dat to d:\whatever\wallet.dat (it doesn't have to be d:)
2. Open command prompt as administrator and go to the original folder of wallet.dat (default or custom data folder)
3. mklink wallet.dat d:\whatever\wallet.dat

The bitcoin wallet default placement seems to be in the bitcoin data directory. Is it possible to specify a different placement?
