Bug ID: 392206
Summary: KFileDialog: Allow to disable and clear recent files
Product: kfile
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
Reporter: rk...@lab12.net
Target Milestone: ---
Apps like Gwenview make use of KFileDialog, which then saves its recent URLs
into the config file of the app itself. From time to time there are requests to
disable retaining such information (e.g. Bug 391527#c2), and this is also
slightly relevant for the "Privacy Software" goal (see
https://phabricator.kde.org/T7050).
It's probably not achievable to get into a state where using KDE's software
does not leave any trace behind at all, but it's worth a try at least. Open
questions:
- Which UI would be best (global, or per app)?
- How to clean existing entries?
- How would integration with similar methods work? (E.g. Sweeper, various KCMs
for browsing history, KRunner command history, Kickoff's recent documents,
Activities' file history etc.)
