I don't like that behaviour -- I have my own scheme for home directory
organization that I've been using for some time and I have no particular reason
to change it.

Back when this xdg thing showed up, I found out how to disable it (edit
either /etc/xdg/user-dirs.conf or ~/.config/user-dirs.conf to include
enabled=False) and have been doing that ever since.

Prior to reading Tim's reply to my question, I had never realized that these
"xdg-aware" programs were pulling their default directories out of
~/.config/user-dirs.dirs.  In fact, I hadn't realized that there was such a
thing as an xdg-aware program.  By editing that file to include the directory
names that I really do use, everything now works swimmingly.
