Confirmed with:
LO 3.5.5.3 
Build ID: own W7 debug build
Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit

When long UNC paths are used filenames of recently used documents are not displayed in Open... dropdown list in LO StartCenter - only first part of UNC path is available. 
Full paths with filenames for such entries are visible only in tooltips displayed in File>Recent Documents menu.
When local paths are used long paths are shortened by ellipsis and filenames are displayed.

Comment 7 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2013-11-02 08:12:31 UTC 
Seems to be fixed in LibreOffice 4.1.
Please feel free to reopen if it not the case for you.

Best regards. JBF
Comment 8 Urmas 2013-11-02 13:01:27 UTC 
It is not fixed in 4.1, and Starting center will be removed in 4.2.
Comment 9 retired 2014-01-06 16:51:36 UTC 
Urmas: how is startcenter removed from 4.2? 4.2.0.1 has it.
