Files opened through `:e` don't appear in macOS recents views

Comienza rastreando cómo MacVim gestiona los archivos abiertos mediante el comando :e cuando se ejecuta desde la GUI y, después, compara ese flujo con los archivos abiertos mediante Finder, ⌘O o vim -g $file. Usa la reproducción con una configuración limpia y verifica que, después del cambio, el archivo aparezca en Apple menu Recent Items, en el menú del Dock y en App Expose.

Steps to reproduce

1. Make a new text file somewhere: touch ~/Desktop/test.txt
2. Open a new empty macvim window
3. Open that file from the Vim command line: :e ~/Desktop/test.txt
4. Right click the macvim dock icon and note that the file is not in the list of recent files

Expected behaviour

macOS shows recently opened files in a number of places, e.g. in Apple menu > Recent Items, in the right-click menu on the dock icon, and at the bottom of the App Expose / "Show all windows" view.

Files opened in macvim through other means (I've tested opening from Finder, opening from ⌘O in macvim, and opening with vim -g $file on the command line) adds the files to this recents list. I would expect files opened the vimmy way with :e to also be included. It adds an extra cognitive step to know I had a file open in macvim recently, but to have to remember how I opened it to know the fastest way of getting back to it. (Not sure if this qualifies as a bug per se or just a non-feature, but either way I'd love it taken care of)
