Public bug reported:

If I start openshot from command line like

   openshot foo.ops

filename "foo.ops" is saved in the recently used files list as
"file://foo.ops," that is, as a relative path.

Is this supposed to be or is it a bug?  IMHO  it is a bug since it does
not make much sense to me to save a relative path in the recent file
list.  If it is a bug, maybe in order to fix it, it suffices to replace
line 139 of open_project.py

   manager.add_item('file://' + file_path)

with

   manager.add_item('file://' + os.path.abspath(file_path))

I am using Linux Mint 17 (cinnammon) 32 bits, OpenShot 1.4.3, installed
via Mint packet manager.
