Yeah, but I need to manage system-wide items, like favorites (found in Finder’s sidebar), recent document (on system level, not my application level), recent servers, etc. Finder still does that so I don’t really get the response that “shared file lists are no longer supported.” The existing API still works though, but being deprecated clearly shows in which direction things are moving. Is that yet another feature developers are stripped of so they couldn’t produce applications which mimic some of Apple’s applications features?
