 It is currently not possible to manipulate the recent post activity
 dashboard widget. Output is built using `wp_dashboard_recent_posts()`. 2
 filters could be introduced for the parameters for future and recent
 posts.

 This would allow easy interaction with the parameters array, for instance
 increasing the amount of posts shown, changing order, post status, CSS ID
 etc - would definitely make it more useful!

 I realise that there is a filter `dashboard_recent_posts_query_args`
 inside the`wp_dashboard_recent_posts()` function (used to build the
 queries, useful for switching post type etc), but there is currently no
 way to interact with the calls to this function.
