Even with the ability to clear with a single menu click, there are user-cases were that remains a

A quick search turned up a feature request:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74834
so the concerns are known and an option requested.
And a couple of possible workarounds...

Sets the history list size to 0, so no thumbnails, but nothing under
File > Recent Documents either. If you're really concerned about
security / privacy, that's probably what you want anyway since listing
file names has the potential to reveal information.

Nars gives a hack to hide the thumbnails. I haven't tried it. As noted,
it's editing one of the main installation files so will affect all
users. You probably also need administrator/root access to edit that
file, and may need to re-do that customisation after installing updates.
Hopefully there's something useful there.
Mark.
