[Bug 45818] Documents/Templates/.. folders path should be customizable

Public bug reported:

The Documents and the Templates folders (and maybe also the Pictures
foldes used by gnome-screensaver) path should not be hard-coded, at
least because not everyone speaks english and understand what these
folders are.

Documents and Templates paths should be configurable at least with
gconf, or (better idea) in a similar way as you can configure preferred
applications.

Manually create a shortcut for a "custom" Documents folder on the
desktop is not an option, because, by the way, the Documents entry in
the Places menu will be wasted.

Last but not least... there is an i18n problem... clicking on the
Documents icon (which is translated... Documenti, Dokumente, etc.) opens
the Documents folder, which can confuse users.

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed
