Great. +1 [but the separate places, which you have drought up in the
other thread, is not entirely needed. The activities is a misleading
name but it could just be changed to a logo or some other better name in
the future.]

The recent documents section is one of the things i find the most
utterly un-usable feature in the gnome shell.

Currently, the recent documents lists *every* document i have view and
is not useful for a workflow.
If i have imported an photo album and have viewed all the photos[or
simply browsed any file], the recent documents is now populated with
only those items.
If i now have to get back to the file i was _working on_ in the morning,
its a nightmare. 

There needs to be a separation/difference between the files the user has
edited and the files the user has browsed. Integrating the Journal would
be a step forward.
