+ folders such as <file>Documents</file> or <file>Downloads</file>. You can add
+ extra folders that you want to use from the <app>Search</app> preference

+ non-standard location such as another folder on your computer or on an
+ external hard disk.</p>

+ <p>This affects some applications which use tracker, but it's not possible
+ for the user to tell which applications will be affected. Note that it may
+ affect third party applications, not only GNOME applications, so we cannot
+ make any commitment.</p>

+ <p>Adding a new folder to the search may let some of your other applications
+ search that folder. Unfortunately, it is not possible to tell which
+ applications will be affected without testing them.</p>
