[Libreoffice-ux-advise] StartCenter - filter MRU document thumbnails to show items for just one component

Folks,

Tabs for each LibreOffice component  on the StartCenter panel  were rejected
during the design process as aesthetically undesirable. 

However, as suggested by Jay Philips  in  fdo#80934 comment 3
<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80934#c3>   a capability to
filter the displayed most recently used (MRU) document thumbnails to just
one LO component would be a good UI enhancement.

While a mouse over event trigger  on hovering would work well for most
users, would also need to provide keyboard accelerator for AT tools support,
and other users that are are keyboard centric.

fdo#61174 <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61174>   remains
open for UX enhancements to the recent file list (File --> Recent
Documents), but this GUI enhancement to the StartCenter seems a very
reasonable goal, if its implementation in GTK+ UI  is feasible.
