This makes sense conceptually.  However, on my machine, evaluating
(xdg-user-dir "DOWNLOAD") just returns $HOME.  That's a worse default
than "~/Downloads/", no?

But I don't know enough about the XDG standard to propose a solution.
Nor do I know if this is because my setup is particularly unusual.

Lars, what do you think?
