Could the Downloads folder be automatically created for upgrades?

Otherwise, I have to:
1. Create Downloads folder
2. Edit ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs with the line XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Downloads"
3. Run xdg-user-dirs-update
4. Logout and log back in to get the pretty icon for the Downloads folder
5. Open nautilus and drag the Downloads folder to the sidebar
