Description William Jon McCann 2012-04-24 00:18:03 UTC 
Nautilus should be consistent with GTK file dialogs in how it names the home directory.

Currently, Nautilus uses "Home" and GTK uses "$USERNAME".
Comment 1 Allan Day 2012-04-24 08:27:47 UTC 
Back when we did the last Nautilus redesign we consolidated around 'Home' - before then it was much more inconsistent than it is now.
