Description Peter 2017-02-11 04:14:27 UTC
This is a summary of what is found as usable improvement for the Recent Document Option:
1) How many Files are shown should be configure able in the Options
2) single entries from the List should have the ability to delete single entries.
3) Files that are not available should be removed automaticly. (see 50042)
4) A config option to filter for Specialized Aplication only (i.e. Do not show docs in Calc) -> see 8245
5) the filtered list should be reused in special cases with special filters (i.e. when adding pictures, see 111031)
6) Certain Folders should be excluded from recent File notification (like temp, see 56582)
7) Menu option on Mac should be Mac Guideline specific Bug 87563 
8)Open Office does not place recent files in Gnome Integration. (see 73534,pretty Old needs to be checked if still allicable)
9) add Recent Documents in Quick starter : 106517 if this is still around... (cant test...)

An extension to add this feature:

Comment 3 Peter 2017-02-12 19:30:46 UTC
Well the Extension goes half way what has been described. But it is a good start.
However the Extension is saidly a dead link. But Pedro has a copy. :)

Could be a base to continue.
