I just encountered this issue as well. I understand why it occurs (in
order to stop pointing to a directory that doesn't exist anymore), but I
guess it's an issue nonetheless.

Indeed :

- I deleted the Templates ("Modèles" in my case) directory because I thought it 
was useless.
- When I figured out a friend of mine was looking for such a feature, I tried 
to re-create the Templates directory but it didn't behave as expected 
- Expected behaviour : files copied to ~/Templates are added to the "New File" 
Nautilus menu
Obtained behaviour : the menu remains empty

So I guess the "xdg-user-dirs-gtk-update" app executed during each Gnome
session should also check whether one expected directory (in this case
Templates) has been created or removed.

To fix it I had to manually modify the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file.

Cheers !
