Method name getSelectedFromOther() and derived variable names are unfortunate, I had no idea how to understand these names.
Why not just RecentNewWizardSelection.getInstance().getItems() ?

Please make the method package protected, as we don't expect anyone to overwrite it.

Please remove "since" comment after making the method package protected, as it would not be new API anymore.

If this would be changed to "public" as proposed, this would be wrong version, API tooling shows an error in the IDE. It should be 3.134 and MANIFESt.MF version should be changed from 3.133.100 to 3.134.0, because new API method would be added.

@laeubi, @HannesWell : looks like API tooling validation on jenkins stopped to work (second time I see it after #2430).
Could you please check whether is that tycho, PDE or jenkins/maven configuration issue?

Never ever do anything in bundle constructor! Any bundle initialization code should be added in the start() method.

This code doesn't belong to the bundle activator, it is an internal implementation detail of the RecentNewWizardsPreferenceManager and should be done there.

Could you please share the scenario you tested .
It do not add the shortcuts if it is already present as part of fixed shortcuts (highlighted in the plugin perspective image) of current perspective . The last used shortcuts change if you switch the perspective .

Java perspective

When I switch to plugin perspective ..

Check if API tools are working in platform UI. This PR should fail validation because it adds new API with wrong since tag. See eclipse-platform#2430 See eclipse-platform#1922
