Comment (by azaozz):

 Agree with @iseulde that the user case for always seeing recent posts is
 "weak". I know, with every UI change some users will miss the "old ways"
 :)

 In the old modal the list of recent posts was shown mostly because that
 space would have been empty otherwise and look bad/strange. When inserting
 a link all users know what they want to link to. It is usually quite
 faster to search for what they know, rather than browse through recent
 posts to "fish it out". The only exception is in case the user wants to
 link to one of the last 10 posts (which were always shown).
