[Bug 19028] New: Mac OSX: Use existing Pictures/ Music/ Videos/ etc. directories

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19028

Summary: Mac OSX: Use existing Pictures/ Music/ Videos/ etc.
                    directories
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.23
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: shell32
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

winecfg on Mac OSX (10.5.6 and .7) does not link "My Videos" etc. to the
equivalent directories on the Mac. Everything is linked to $HOME (or was it
Desktop/?) instead. What a pity!

Mac OSX uses directories named Documents/, Pictures/, Videos/, Music/ -- even
in the German locale. The Finder GUI provides localized names.  Unlike
XDG/Gnome there are no crazy hacks at session begin to rename directories based
on the session's locale.
I don't know how earlier releases of Mac OSX behave, i.e. whether these
directories have always been present. Does anyone have a reference?

I located the relevant places that would need a patch:
dlls/shell32/shellpath.c:_SHCreateSymbolicLinks
and possibly
dlls/shell32/xdg.c:XDG_UserDirLookup

However, some design issues are unclear to me:
- Where to add the Mac check?
- When to check for a folder named "My Documents" (MS-Windows non-localized
name in English locale), and when for "Documents" (MacOS constant name)?
- Use XDG on the Mac or not? (if linked in, e.g. possibly when compiled via
MacPorts, which pulls in a zillion libraries. Apple does not provide
libfreedesktop.)
