/**
* ephy_file_get_downloads_dir:
*
- * Gets the full path to the downloads dir. This uses ephy_file_downloads_dir()
- * internally and hence is locale dependant. Note that this can return %NULL if
- * not even the user homedir path can be found.
+ * Returns a proper downloads destination by checking the
+ * EPHY_PREFS_STATE_DOWNLOAD_DIR GSettings key and following this logic:
+ *
+ * - An absolute path: considered user-set, use this value directly.
+ *
+ * - "Desktop" keyword in GSettings: the directory returned by
+ * ephy_file_desktop_dir().
+ *
+ * - "Downloads" keyword in GSettings, or any other value: the XDG
+ * downloads directory, or ~/Downloads.
*
* Returns: a newly-allocated string containing the path to the downloads dir.
