Have Desktop and Documents as favorites in Media Browser by default

When I do training, a lot for people save their media on the Desktop or in Documents. I often spend several minutes teaching people how to add Desktop or Documents folders as favorites.

It's very confusing to people that the Media Browser does not show folders the way that macOS or Windows do. The file browsers in both OS-es show shortcuts to Downloads, Documents and Desktop.

Why can't these favorites be there by default?

You know you can do it! The Rush team got it right, so do what they did.

If it could show the Windows file explorer "Quick access" shortcuts, that would be even better.

+ 1 from me. Maybe low on the list but how much time could it really take?

at the same time... Let also do this for the Project Panel. Desktop needs be there by default for quick adds.

This may sound like a non-important request, since it's possible to add these shortcuts manually.
But why would you want the very first impression of Premiere Pro to be that it actually takes some work just to find your media files?
