Well, $HOME is the "hardcoded" choice right now, in a way, I guess it
could be argued that it is a good choice for some users (those that
only manipulate document files, and use their computer for mail and
internet browsing the rest of the time)...
In any case, is there already a consensus that this should be done ?
Is there gonna be a flamewar ?
Should I add a gconf key to adjust this for the power users that want
to (this will not be easy, but hey, I can try, can't I)?

In any case, I really don't care, since I didn't even have a
"Documents" directory before starting to work on this. I'm just gonna
make the patch, as soon as somebody tell me how I should make it
behave.
