I would like some opinions on this: http://www.cs.indiana.edu/~jwillcox/files/screenshots/ui-properties.pngThe addition at the bottom of the dialog would allow users to change the default preferences for the recent files menus. Is this close to what you guys would like to see for this? (or do you think users should be able to change these values at all?)
I don't think that the Recent Documents options should go in the "menu and toolbar preferences" group. Just because a feature appears in a menu doesn't mean that the feature's options belong to the "menus" group.
I agree with Havoc that this option would be better off hidden from the UI.
