Glad to hear that. Are you going to be doing any further work on this piece or would you consider it complete? If complete, we actually mark things as "fix released" when committed to svn rather than "fix committed".
I figured that the "spamming" was the reason you opted not to do the migration. Given that it's a one time thing, I can live with it.
As a side question, will this change affect the customizable number of docs listed in the Recent Documents list within Inkscape?
Cheers, Josh

Yes, GtkRecentManager should obey freedesktop.org standards - this is what Gnome apps use. I marked that bug as "fix committed".
It could be possible to migrate the recent document entries from prefs to RecentManager, but it wouldn't play well with e.g. Gnome's recent documents list (the global list would be spammed, because everything you had in Inkscape's list would be put on the top). I think it's best to leave it as it is, because recent document entries are not a critical piece of data.
