There were no changes to filechooser behaviour in 1.7.1, save that we
now use actual FileChooserButtons in the new tab UI.

Nope, it's totally unrelated. I also don't see this behaviour on my
test machine, though I'm currently running an old GTK+ here. As far as
I recall, we don't ever explicitly set the folder that a file chooser
starts in, so maybe some external default has changed?

Either way, I agree that opening in the recent section is pretty much
pointless. Can you file a bug with details (e.g., how to actually
reproduce the behaviour)?

cheers,
Kai
