I don't think so. At least we haven't described this in any version of 
uispecs. Is that a requirement or do you have some usecases when it 
would be needed? Netbeans 3.x doesn't have MRU list at all (neither 
global nor project specific).

Assuming we would implement MRU then I think it will contain only files 
opened from the project. The editor will be capabale to open files which 
doesn't belong to any project and provide some basic editing support, 
but those files will not occure in any project-specific MRU list since 
they aren't opened from any project. They might occure in some global 
MRU list.
