            Bug ID: 137878
           Summary: Too many dialogs when failing to recover a file after
                    crash
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.2.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: eyalroz at technion.ac.il

When LO is started after a crash, it offers to restore/recover files from
before the crash.

In some cases (or maybe always?), when a file intended for recovery is not
found, LO opens multiple dialogs saying as much.

At the very least, LO should keep it to a single notice of failure per file.

Also, one could argue that no extra dialog should be open other than the
recovery dialog, where the failed recovery item gets an 'X', and some extra UI
(e.g. hover-based comment, expandable widget with a label) could tell the user
what the failure was.
