IIRC, whatever Nautilus uses to parse user-dirs.dirs (xdg-open, I think), 
it is very finicky about the format of the entries. Removing the trailing 
slash from "$HOME/Templates" should resolve the issue. At least it does 
in 12.04, so it should in 14.04 unless there is some other regression at 
play.
