XnView Software

I find I'm clicking on it too often when I mean to invoke "Reopen" instead.

"Browse" deserves, imo, to be set off between separators anyways, as it's a "switch" command between two of the modes of XnView: the single image viewer and the thumbnail browser. Even Irfan sets his off with horizontal lines (in IrfanView it's called "Thumbnails," but it's basically the same thing).

Can we look forward to such a change in a future version of XnView for Windows?

You means to have a separator in the menu before 'Browse'?

Yes. And maybe one below it.

And I can't think of much more to say about it than what I wrote in my OP: the command takes one from View mode into Browser mode, the latter of which can take up as much of the window space as possible. Try to imagine if someone has turned on "One instance only," but unchecked "View tabs" and makes the mistake of clicking on "Browse" when they mean to click on "Reopen." That user would most likely quit XnView and re-launch, hoping their "Recent files" submenu has kept in synch. Although the better choice would be to click on "File">"Recent files" and choose the topmost item in that list, as often as not people take the "long way back to the beginning," as you and I well know.
