@Gauco: 
"That's the point of recent files, but I don't think it applies to hidden ones."
Sorry, I do not understand this statement.
I still do not get any difference between a "normal" recently used files 
feature (in an application or like in classical Gnome) displaying "hidden" 
files and the one in unity. "Hidden" files should be called "hidden" (with 
quotation marks) because it takes e.g. one Strg+H to display them in nautilus, 
a better name is "dotfiles" because -- at least in my point of view -- their 
only purpose is to hide the configuration files and directories in the default 
listing the home dir (or stuff like .svn, .git or .lock-#3245~ in any other 
dir). I think they were never intended for "privacy". Actually, I think the 
proposed patch even somewhat fails for this use case: (non-hidden) files in 
hidden directories will still be displayed.
Anyway, maybe I'll raise this question on a mailing list, this does not seem to 
be the right place (and if anyone is flaming, this seems to be me because the 
general consensus is against me ;-)).
