--- Comment #1 from Rafael Lima <rafael.palma.lima at gmail.com> ---
So basically what you want is that LibreOffice only shows the DR dialog when
you try to open the a file that had previously crashed? If you try to open some
other file (even if a previous LO session crashed), you want the DR dialog to
not be shown?

AFAIK the recovery info is obtained from the hidden backup file that is created
while the document is open. So I guess this might be possible, but I'm not an
expert on the inner-workings of file recovery.

Maybe we could have the following workflows:

1) If LO crashes and the user tries to open a file that has backup information,
then only the DR dialog is shown (as is today)

2) If LO crashes and the user tries to open some other file, the file is opened
and becomes ready for editing; and at the same time the DR dialog is shown to
indicate that there are files pending recovery.

Let's hear from the UX team.
