User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:94.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/94.0
Steps to reproduce:
Opened a file in the browser with the open file menu (Ctrl-O). Equivalently, dropped a file using it when uploading to a website.
Actual results:
The recent file history was saved (Ctrl-O -> Recent).
Expected results:
The recent file history should not have been saved as ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini includes the following two lines:
gtk-recent-files-max-age=0
gtk-recent-files-limit=0
The browser should have respected these settings. So far, the only workaround is to make .local/share/recently-used.xbel owned by root which is not a very practical solution (any time anything else was done to the file (e.g. symlink to /dev/null) Firefox recreated it with open permissions).
I have attempted to find the section in the source that is the issue, however the closest I could find is toolkit/components/downloads/DownloadPlatform.cpp.

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Bookmarks & History' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please revert this change in case you think the bot is wrong.
