Description Gustavo Noronha (kov) 2009-10-28 18:03:50 UTC 
I have seen numerous requests for this on the mailing list, but couldn't find a bug report to track this - currently the Recent Documents view lists all recent files. It would be valuable for it to ignore certain files, and folders, and to provide the ability to hide it, and/or clean it up, to avoid information disclosure.

I think this is a dup of https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=597080
Comment 2 Gustavo Noronha (kov) 2009-11-23 08:49:29 UTC 
I agree. Thanks!
