Title: "Recent Documents" point frequently to invalid links Status in GTK+: Won't Fix Status in gnome-panel package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in gtk+2.0 package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Hi Shorcuts are one of the three main Gnome Menus. Within the Shortcuts Menu, "Recent Documents" points to the last ten recently opened files as they appear in /home/user/.recently-used.xbel. They do appear in this xbel file in reverse order, where the most recent file is the last of the document. Problem to solve is this one: many times, after documents land on the desktop or in the download folder, user opens them and then stores them in another place or delete them. But, they are recorded by xbel as being placed on the desktop where they indeed were last opened. This way, quite frequently, among the ten displayed items, href information is invalid and points to unexisting bookmarks. This is frustrating because the only choice offered to the user is to fully delete the list. After that, the user loses confidence in this list and forgets to use it. I think the user should be provided a fully working list: he should have, for exemple, the possibility by pressing a button to refresh the list. This would allow him to check if the href links of the bookmarks are still valid and, if not, it would erase the invalid bookmarks. Another way to implement this feature would be to check periodically the validity of href links in the "recent documents" file.
