Hmm, it seems to be agreed upon that this is a bug and it is already "in
progress" -- may I cast my vote for *not* "fixing" this? I do not think
"hidden" files are really meant to hide anything but really to avoid
clutter, especially in your home directory full of configuration files.
The upcoming zeitgeist activity manager seems to be much more suited to
blacklist folders etc.

What now, if I open the file .bashrc in gedit? gedit will show the file
in its recent documents list and in Gnome 2 you would also find it in
the global recent documents list -- why shouldn't the file lense show it
as well? Do you really think the major use case for hidden files and
directories is for "secret" content and not configuration files/dirs?
