Surely they're more easily discovered in ~/Documents? If what's placed
there is actually a symlink to the real document, which is stored under
/usr/share/doc somewhere, then the user can just delete that symlink once
he's read the notes without affecting any other users.

I think Control Center's Details section is a little too hidden away for
the release notes, and is also GNOME-specific.
