It seems you should go with the method you know best. Not only would it be
a breeze to wire up, but the file would also be accessable to the user. In that way
the first entry could be the number to list, such that the user can easily set that value
there, (As well as some option page in your app). If they want 25 MRU names, then
they can have them....
Just a suggestion!
