Public bug reported:
To keep it consistent with the other default directories, the new
"Download" directory should be renamed to "Downloads". We have
Documents, Pictures, and Videos. Download (non-plural) seems very out of
place and is just noticeable enough to be annoying. This could be
considered a "Paper Cut".
This also will prevent duplicate directories since many programs,
especially Firefox, default to "Downloads" when saving a file.
The questions we need answered are, who or what created this directory?
Is it there just to be there or did a package/application create it? If
it's the latter, please change the "Affects" package accordingly.
Ubuntu 9.10 Alpha 6, installed via Alternate CD.
