Description Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller 2009-03-19 19:13:07 UTC 
It would be really nice if the python functions around g_get_user_special_dir was wrapped also so I could use them in my application, currently hardcoding $HOME/Videos, which I feel is very suboptimal.

Wrap the requested function and GUserDirectory constants

Should we also wrap other g_get_user_*_dir() functions?  Basically, the policy was that we don't wrap functions that duplicate Python standard library.  However, I'm not even sure what is present there and what is not.
