Summary:
UIDocumentBrowserViewController displays a list of recently opened files in the Recent Tab. There is however no way to programatically access this list of documents. A lot of apps like e.g. Keynote, Pages or MindNode display a list of recent documents as UIApplicationShortcutItems or in their Widget. This list should always be in sync with the list displayed by UIDocumentBrowserViewController.

Steps to Reproduce:
-

Expected Results:
`UIDocumentController` offers an API to retreive the list of recent documents, which is the same as the list displayed by UIDocumentBrowserViewController

Actual Results:
There is no API to request a list of recent documents

Version:
iOS 11b2
