Yes sorry, that was my mistake. The Load URL dropdown "displays" only entries
taken from the per user history in regsitrymodifications.xcu--the same as the
Recent Documents split menu, while its support for file path completion is
drawn from the OS.

On Windows 10 Pro 64-bit en-US with
LibreOffice 3.3.0 
OOO330m19 (Build:6)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.4

and latest master
Version: 5.2.0.0.alpha1+
Build ID: efc05c0a1ecac549c8340a8f9ec4e47556569adc

While the Load URL widget has some nice autocomplete and "history" functions,
the issue seems to be that updates to listed entries do not matches those of
the main Menu "Recent Items" most recently used item list.

The File split menu "Recent Documents" entry updates, but the Standard
toolbar's "Load URL" dropdown list does not. Seems reasonable the documents
listed can be kept in sync

That the list is not updated, to include clearing the list (as implemented for
the menu  in bug 62028) should be corrected. And any additional enhancement for
bug 61174 for the split menu list should also be applied to the Load URL list
as well.

Believe it has been over looked for so long because the "Load URL" widget is
not a default toolbar widget.

Adjusted the Summary.
