I think that during private browsing mode, Fx shouldn't leave any footsteps as far as possible.
yes, however firefox can not change the behavior of the underlying operating system it is running on. again: are you running in Ubuntu, Ubuntu has some applications other linux distributions don't have, and I think you are describing this behavior. Then it can be figured out if the change has to happen in firefox or in ubuntu. (or both)

According the patch of bug 670275, we *register* the recent used file into the system even when it's in private browsing mode. So, I think that this is a simple bug of the download manager.
