First, this control in the toolbar has at least 3 different uses, independent
from in which application it is used:
First, it displays the location of the current document. This is what the bug
requested to fix, as it didn't work for Base before, but for all other document
types.
Second, it allows typing the location of an existing document, and by pressing
enter, this document is opened. While doing so, the drop down list contains an
auto-completed list of existing folders/files, much the same as in the internal
File/Open dialog (in fact that's the same control). This worked in all
applications even before this fix.
Third, if you don't type anything into the box, then the drop down list contains
a history of all previously opened files.

What I see in your screen shot is a number of *.rpt files, which indicates you
ran the SRB which produces such temporary files when executing a report.
However, as far as I can tell, this was also the case before the fix: the drop
down list displayed .rpt files. Also, it was, and is (in OO6680m4), the case in
*all* applications I tested.

So, my explanations for your screen shot are: The temporary SRB reports are
listed there, and the previously opened documents are, too.

However, what confuses me is that you say the list behaves differently in the
different applications, this is something I couldn't reproduce.

What I found is that the list does not display previously opened database
documents, in neither application, which seems to be a bug in itself. (One for
your "Where is Base?" list :)

The fact that temporary report files are listed there sounds like a bug, too.
Finally, the list is fed from the same data as the "File/Recently Used" sub
menu, and in the latter, .rpts are not displayed, and .odbs are. So, this should
be possible for the "Load URL"'s list box, too.
