No duplicates--because the favorites and recents lists are both always visible
and the two lists are too short already for many locales (bug 120753).

The list of 'Favorites', which can be directly modified by user, is implemented
as a stack preloaded with localized defaults. The 'Recently used' is dynamic,
its stack expands to its maximum (currently 16). As both stacks are listed
together for the SCD split button--items on favorites should not be duplicated
onto the recents.

The behavior of the split button to *not add* a pick from recents list to
favorites list is the better behavior.  

Behavior of the two lists on the Special Character dialog is what is not
consistent--and IMHO wrong.

For consistency *any* pick already on the favorites stack--from the dialog char
chart or the favorites list--should not be pushed onto the recents stack (the
two stacks would need to be logically linked and favorites checked to avoid the
duplication onto recents).
