| The linguistic implication of a submenu is "finish the sentence

| "Open Recent" means "Open Recent [Document] blah.lyx". "Paste Recent"

"Open Recent" means to me "Recently opened documents"
"Paste Recent" follows same pattern "Recently pasted selections(cuts)"
and this is not true.

but in the case of paste, the verb is not really paste... but
cut/copied.

Please don't.
What do you think of the "Pick and Paste" proposal?
("Pick then Paste"?)
("Pick for Paste"?)
