Possible fix...

Here ~/.local/share/user-places.xbel is correctly formatted. It contains one each of the standard items for:

* Places (Home, Network, Root, Trash)
* Recently Saved (Today, Yesterday, This Month, Last Month)
* Search For (Documents, Images, Audio Files, Videos)
* Devices (<my_hard_drive>)

Given the above, I moved all the files in ~/.local/share/kfileplaces/ to a temporary location and restarted KDE. Voila! Gwenview now has only one of each (just Places, not the others). Furthermore, Kickoff -> Computer also has only one of each (again, just Places).

I had previously also moved all the files in ~/.kde/share/apps/kfileplaces/.

So it looks like we no longer need any of those */kfileplaces/bookmarks.xml files and can do with the single user-places.xbel file.
