   I wonder sometimes how any "default" is chosen by the devs.   
      
   With regard to Path Bar or Location Entry, if you have the latter and   
   use View | Sidebar | Places and select for example "Recent" from the   
   sidebar pane, it shows "recent:///" as the location. What does that   
   mean? It's the same thing for Favourites and Trash, but the other   
   entries are shown in full, whether in your home folder or root (for   
   "File System").   
      
   If now you change the view to "Path Bar" rather than "Location Entry",   
   right-click on what's in the Path Bar in grey, and select "Properties",   
   an info box pops up.   
      
   So if you have selected, for example, Documents, it shows:   
   Type: Folder (inode/directory)   
   Location: /home/(your home folder)   
      
   Now try, for example, Recent. You'll get:   
   Type: Folder (inode/directory)   
   Location: (blank)   
      
   Try again with Favourites.   
   Type: Unknown (application/octet-stream)   
     Location: (blank)   
      
   Now with Trash:   
   No entry for Type or Location!   
      
   I don't understand this at all. All three different from each other   
   using Path Bar, yet all the same using Location Entry.
