Everything breaks horribly the moment the file name and the directory
name as shown by GNOME differ. The world is not GNOME. Firefox is not
GNOME, all the KDE apps are not GNOME, most proprietary software is not
GNOME, OpenOffice is not GNOME.
For a combined GUI/Shell user doing hacks in gnomespace instead of just
using proper directory naming is a nightmare.
