Yes, the terminology varies between platforms, but this is more about
our being consistent in LyX itself. I don't think we want to get into
changing the text for different OSs.
My understanding is that "directory" refers to a file system object,
whereas "folder" generally refers to a GUI-related object, which may or
may not correspond to an actual directory. E.g., sometimes there is a
Printers folder.
