That makes sense, I've updated the patch on SF.

I do plan to work on "Remember dialog size and positions" task next, but
I've not decided yet where to put the information. The only advantage
to putting this into the same file as recent files info is the fact that
there'd be one file less to care about. I think I'll go with separate
files just because that makes code somewhat simpler and keeps features
clearly independent.
