There's actually an xdg standard for this, https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs. ~~Afaik, Qt supports this with QStandardPaths, e.g. QStandardPaths::DesktopLocation.~~ Actually, scratch that, it doesn't support xdg-user-dirs, and returns a generic value.
  
  
  This patch uses `QStandardPaths::DesktopLocation()`, so that case is handled. In discussions here, I was just referring to "~/Desktop" as a placeholder for the appropriate location.
