They already do. -d is in BaseOptions (in src/allmydata/scripts/common.py)
since <http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/changeset/4614/trunk>,
released in Tahoe-LAFS v1.8.

The default node directory is given by get_default_nodedir in common.py
<http://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/src/allmydata/scripts/common.py#L10>.
