Please don't.

What is relevant or not is up to the user. I'd argue that folders created by
the user themselves are more relevant for a person than standard folders
predefined by the distribution. Many don't use the
"Documents-Downloads-Pictures" stereotype.
Most users will not expect this behaviour, much less such a change in
behaviour.
Even if you know about it, having to add a newly created folder to the
whitelist is easily forgotten, and annoying.
The performance argument isn't relevant.
If a user has big data that is causing performance problems and stores them in
~/Documents it will cause performance problems, and this suggestion would not
change anything about that. The better way of handling this big data would be
to blacklist it explicitely.
If a stereotypical user doesn't have any folders besides the user-dirs.dirs,
this won't improve performance either.
