I'd like to suggest two more solutions:
- In the export dialog, add another button next to "Export" labeled "Export and
open". The drawback is that it doesn't work when using direct export from the
toolbar.
- Add a pulldown to the "Direct export to PDF" toolbar button, with one item
"Open exported PDF" when an export of the current document was done. I don't
think it makes sense showing latest 5 exports or so, because they wouldn't be
related to the current document, and thus to your current task.

Adding a new toolbar button would be too much IMHO, the general UI is already
complex enough.


WRT bug 37219 - Add exported PDF files to recent documents:
As I explained on that report, these two bugs have much in common, but are not
completely redundant. As I see it, bug 37219 would make the problem addressed
in the present report easier to circumvent, but it wouldn't completely fix the
very common use case "Export a PDF, check the result". We need a correct
solution *within LO* that doesn't require the user to go and find the exported
file by hand.
