Does anyone know where the location of user-specified Finder sidebar Favorites has moved to in El Capitan? They do not appear to be in either ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist or ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sidebarlists.plist.

I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to reset the Finder sidebar options to default by deleting com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.sidebarlists.plist. This method worked in previous versions of OS X, but not El Capitan. It is the last thing I need to do so I can create a modified User Template for mass deployment.
