QWinExtras provides some functionality into manipulating these Windows API-provided MRU jumplists, but I'm just not sure how far down the Windows rabbit-hole I'm willing to go in a cross-platform application. That would require really uglying up some fairly straightforward cross-platform code with uncertain results. I know I can add things to a new mru jumplist, but I've no idea if we could (or even want to) completely take over the automatic population of the existing win api provided mru jumplist. Nor do I think we would have any control over what gets added to that particular jumplist when Sigil is launched via calibre's Open With feature/plugin.

I'll do some investigating, though.
