Go /recent tab name

[aussieboykie]

Prompted to try Go /Recent after reading this post, I notice that the resultant tab name is the full long path name:

C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent Items

All the other built-in aliases I tried are replaced with the last element of the long name; for example /Downloads = Downloads, /Dopusdata = Directory Opus. /Recent appears to be odd man out.

On related matters, it would be nice to be able to name a new tab on the fly. Something along the lines of:

Go folder-with-some-long-and-convoluted-name TABNAME="My Stuff"

Maybe there is already a way to do this?

I don't think there's a raw command that lets you set the tab name ... AFAIK it's only available through the folder tab context menu.

Thanks, confirmed.

You beauty! And an undocumented feature to boot.

It was for internal use before, but since it is useful it has been made a proper, documented argument in the new beta.
