But the title of the node/menu is `Recently Visited Nodes'. This is misleading. So much so that I even looked to see if there was some truncation of the history that was involved, perhaps governed by some variable. (There is not, and none is needed.) Please consider renaming the title to something that does not suggest that only the most recent elements of the history are included. Perhaps a name such as simply `Visited Nodes'.
