Many users use recentf. Likewise, libraries. Nowhere is it said what
order the files are listed in, i.e., the order of the elements of
`recentf-list'. The answer is apparently that, by default at least, a
file is pushed to the front of the list when it is "opened" or written.
A more exact answer is that `recentf-list' is in reverse chronological
order of calls to `recentf-track-opened-file'. And by default that
function is added to these hooks: `find-file-hook' and
`write-file-functions'.
