--- Comment #17 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- I support the WONTFIX, at least for Windows case. A very clear description of the MRU list on Windows is given in the SHAddToRecentDocs function documentation [1]; it is explained that the primary effect is adding entries to the *application*'s jump list (i.e., making it easier to open that file with *that application*). Also it may "attempt to register an application to handle a file type that it is not registered to handle" - and that additionally reinforces the focus of the MRU list to *connect* the file with its application. And that is exactly what we should avoid in this case, because LibreOffice is *not* a PDF reader (nor PNG authoring tool, and so on). No idea about the philosophy of such lists on other platforms - but have a gut feelings that it is likely similar.
