As a curator I want more dynamic and intelligent smart selector recent lists [Was: "Typing" a collection object should add it to Recent]

[tmcelrath]

Feature or enhancement

When I use comprehensive to "typify" a collection object, it is not added to "Recent" or "Quick". Instead, that list is generated from "New Taxon Name".

In my workflow, I generally create a lot of new names, then add the type information, and often the names I need aren't showing up, even though I'm reusing them a lot, because the list isn't being triggered by "New Type"-actions.

Note to self: Consider a more explicit Recent stack hook/system.

• Create a controller plugin that auto-detects the object based, and adds it to the stack
• Include option to provide reference to other objects by their method name recentify(:collection_object) on @taxon_determination for example
• Max 20/class
• Pop/push, > 20 falls off the stack.
• Handle community/priority.
• Refactor recent hooks.
