Here is a suggestion for MacOs only, which I believe will save time for users by enabling them to open a recent file directly in Sigil from the Dock.

When you right-click an icon in the MacOs Dock, some applications expose a list of recently opened files. Clicking on a selected file will open it directly in the application. This saves the need to hunt the file in a browser window and then double-click to open it.

See the attached image for examples in LibreOffice Writer and Scrivener applications. You will notice an entry in the bubbles, 'Show Recent'. This is not, in my opinion, useful because if no files are shown in the top part, no files will be shown if you select 'Show Recent'. If files are shown in the top part of the bubble, clicking on the 'Show Recent' produces a horizontal display of larger icons just above the Dock, with the same files that were listed in the bubble.

At present, Sigil does not expose any recent files, and I suggest that it should.
