[GNC] Recently Opened list not updated until Gnucash restarted

Following a problem I encountered after installing version 4.1, I made copies of the last-known-good .gnucash files (four in total) in a ./TEST subdirectory, and opened them using File->Open.
I expected the Recently Opened list to reflect this, but found that one particular file wasn’t appearing in the list even after being opened repeatedly.
Quitting GC and restarting corrects this.
Had I made my test duplicates (with modified filenames) in my default accounts directory, I’d have spotted this more quickly, as I’d have expected the list to have included filename1_TEST, filename2_TEST, etc as I went on.
I haven’t come across this issue in other software I use regularly - is there some reason why GnuCash should behave this way?
Regards,
Michael
