List most recently opened files in initial quick switcher suggestions

After launching the quick switcher, the initial list of five suggestions are seemingly random. I find myself switching frequently between pages I recently accessed, would greatly benefit from the initial quick switcher suggestions listing my most recently opened files.

Notion’s quick switcher (ctrl/command + p) does this and I’ve found it makes the editing process much more streamlined. Plus it makes better use of the valuable quick switcher suggestions space.

Recently opened files should definitely be shown on the quick switcher. It is such a common use case to go to the latest files that VSCode, Sublime etc. also do have this feature.

This is more of a bug report actually. Will be fixed in the next release!

This got fixed in the latest release:
