This seems useful if implemented well. I envision a drop-down below the 'saved histories' menu item that appears on extended hover and provides links to recent histories. To implement I suggest: (a) create a SQLAlchemy query of user's histories sorted by last update time with limit N (e.g., 5) (b) provide this list to the index.mako template in the root.py/index method (c) refresh the middle frame using handle_refresh_frames() code in message.mako To get started with Galaxy, you'll want to create a fork of galaxy-central and work locally.
