Wow, this bugginess is still around in 16.04. Today after a minor
upgrade this offer to change folders came up. I initially declined the
offer but when it persisted I accepted and my Download folder with 13 GB
of data disappeared - poof - and was replaced with an empty Download
folder.
I have it asking me to rename /home/davidmaxwaterman to
/home/davidmaxwaterman/Documents. This is after a fresh install of 13.04
and restoring /home/davidmaxwaterman from backup, and rebooted.

I have something similar too, on Karmic. My language is set as UK

Hi,
I'm using Hardy too. I've done a routine system update today, and when I
turned on my computer later the Update standard folders to current
language dialog box appeared, asking me to change my home/[user]
directory to /home/[user]/public. I had not changed any of my language
settings too.
