Description John Arthorne CLA 2011-06-07 09:05:06 EDT 
Given all the efforts to avoid the term 'project' in the UI, the "Recent Projects" section on the landing page feels out of place. It is potentially confusing that this suggests you can have projects, but the user will find no way to create a project once they get to the Navigator. I suggest changing to "Recent Folders" or something generic like "Recent Places", "Recent History", etc.

I got stuck on this because what we are showing is "Recent Root Folders" and I couldn't think of a name.  I'll go with "Recent Places" unless someone can think of something better.

I tried "Recent Places" but it felt out of place (no pun intended).  "Recent History" sounds weird, "History" is too plain.  Talked to Boris and we ended up with "Navigator History."  In the long run we will probably mix recent and favorites anyway.  That is covered in bug 345622.

Reviewed patch and screenshot with Boris over chat.
Pushed.
