a) Know what this is all about

Kind of, but I won't dive into the aliases/links war again ;)))

Let's stop at the plain fact that if you try to open a WebObject application current log ("appname-instancenumber") using 'Open Recent', some pretty old log would be opened for you instead of the current one. Enough, I fear even this would be considered a troll ;)

b) Know of an api to look after this automatically

Sure, have a look at NSDocumentController's noteNewRecentDocument: message (and a few other ones around it).

c) Tell me if I am totally off in all this!

Trying to implement the functionality editing directly prefs I'd say you indeed are ;)
