Danger, Vin, "My Documents" is only correct for the American and
English version of Windows.
Perhaps %USERPROFILE% is the best we can do?
AFAICT, the relevant registry key is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell
Folders\Personal
There are a whole bunch of these keys under "Shell Folders", so I
would guess that those are all of the per-user directories which are
meaningful to the shell.
