Bug Description

Inkscape 0.91 r13725 on 64bit Ubuntu 15.10
===================================

When Inkscape crashes it luckily creates crash backups.
I'd like to be able to see them listed under "Open -> Recent", even though I never opened them.
There is the danger of picking up the project later and miss that there is a more recent version than the "Recent Files" menu suggests.
It is also annoying to have to fire up the file browser and find the right backup.

Probably a better feature would be an explicit UI upon opening, as described in bug 171424. As a result, closing as duplicate.
