Add option to sync Documents folder

[Craig Cabrey]

It would be a nice idea if there was an option in the U1 client to sync the contents of the Documents folder automatically. Then a user wouldn't have to save Documents directly to the My Files folder, but also benefits from having their docs in the cloud. Just food for thought. :)

Further triaging into wishlist land, thanks for the idea!

we will definitely support this when we enable multi-root support in
syncdaemon.

Perhaps add support for simply being able to add different folders to the ubuntuone sync list. Say I want my Pictures folder to sync, I could right click on it and say "Share with UbuntuOne." This way the user can keep their files organized on their computer but also have support for syncing with other computers. When the sync occurs it would be nice to have the files automatically go to their respective folders on the other computer(s).
