Fest:
Thanks for your thoughts and the sketch. I feel this workflow issue (i.e.
adding a second type of favorites in addition to regular bookmarks) is not
really specific for Okular, you could argue similarly for nearly every
application and eventually even think about a new meta-library-manager.

However, this new application already exists and is called Dolphin, i.e. there
you have the option to create a "Favorites" folder and add (static) symlinks to
documents (of any type, not only PDF) as you wish. I believe with Baloo there
is also the possibility to (dynamically) list frequently used documents (but
maybe this could work better with grouping by filetype/author etc.?).

Note that Windows Explorer also has a feature called "Library", not sure how
that works but could be worth studying in detail and opening feature requests
for Dolphin for the nice parts we are still missing.

Florian:
I like your alternative suggestion to improve the empty start screen, as this
adds some of the library feature without adding clutter to the rest of the UI.
Let's make the bug (or rather feature request) about this.

We could also look at Gwenview, LibreOffice and Firefox regarding ideas. But
also adding unique features might be useful, e.g. sorting by author or a
search-as-you-type drill-down list.
