            Bug ID: 431330
           Summary: Displaying recent directories in Dolphin under
                    Recently Closed Tabs
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian stable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY
It would be very useful if Dolphin could display recently opened directories.

In my case a Dolphin window with multiple tabs crashed and I wanted to restore
the tabs which I don't remember but those places were not displayed under
"Recently Closed Tabs" (Control->Go->Recently Closed Tabs or Control->Configure
Toolbars->move it from the left to the right).

It would also be nice if there were a set of preconfigured "Places" to choose
from when clicking "Add Entry" on the left "Places" panel and if these included
an entry for "Recent Places" which when clicked shows which directories were
recently opened.

KDE's "History" in the main options in the bottom left also only show
"Documents" but not directories (that would be a separate issue though). And
there could also be a "session" feature for Dolphin which allows you to save
sessions of opened tabs and restore them upon closing the window or in cases
where Dolphin crashed.

This is either a wishlist item or a normal issue - tabs that were opened in a
recently closed window of Dolphin are still "recently closed tabs" so imo the
"recently closed tabs" feature is not complete if they don't also show such
tabs.

OBSERVED RESULT
"Recently closed tabs" only show tabs of the current window, but not of former
windows and I could not display recently opened directories in any way in
Dolphin.

EXPECTED RESULT
"Recently closed tabs" should also show tabs of crashed and closed Dolphin
windows and/or there should be a way to display recently opened folders if
Dolphin is configured to do so.
