This real question to me is, how is hiding the downloads and confusing
users a better solution? 36 spaces for Downloads is a lot. If someone
has that many, they can easily move them where they want and create a
folder. The user who _can't find_ their downloads doesn't have as
simple and obvious of a solution, it seems to me.
