i see this clearly as a bug, see newly added duplicates.

important comments from there:

----------------------------
i have deleted my templates folder and nautilus does not handle this very well.
clicking on "Go->Templates" brings me to my home folder.

(that is at least consistent with
XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR="$HOME/"
line from .config/user-dirs.dirs)

however this setup is not very useful because i most certainly do not
want to have my templates in my home folder (or put it the other way
round: all my files as a template). and secondly, it does not work, i.e.
even the files that are in my home folder are not available as
templates...

i suggest that a non-existent template dir should not be changed to $HOME and i 
should be offered some assistance when clicking on "Go->Templates" in this case.
----------------------------

----------------------------
for future reference: i wrote up how to fix an accidentally deleted folder:
