Support for proper renaming of XDG user DIRS
Currently, renaming of a XDG User DIR (like e.g. ~/Downloads) followed by reboot will lead to having no special icon for that folder anymore (among other possible downsides).
The idea is, to either directly update ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
or use some library to do so, in order to simplify proper renaming of these folders.
Version information
thunar master
Steps to reproduce
- mv ~/Downloads ~/Downloads.new
- open thunar
- No special icon will be used anymore for the "Downloads.new" folder
Additional information
I suppose we could check if the folder to rename is a XDG-user-dir, and if so, call some xdg-user-dirs-update
method (or at least show some warning before showing the thunar rename dialog).
According to this askubuntu answer, nautilus is/was able to update the xdg dirs properly.
