Interesting that my 7.0 help files include a description of this feature! I have read a description of it being first added as a `tentative patch' in
version 7 that had a bug, and then withdrawn - only to be reintroduced later, 
apparently.

I could always write a brute force script using, for instance, awk, that
grepped out the filenames from viminfo and offerred them in vim with a prompt.
Might run a bit slow, however.
