I'm not sure what the best place is to put this. A bunch of filename
entries for each type isn't exactly a nice piece of ui to show users.

I'd like to point out that there is *some* support at least for changing
this currently. If you just move and/or rename the default directories
nautilus will track this and update the config file.
