Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 In [attachment:38342.4.diff]
 * Add support for the legacy `dashboard_recent_drafts_query_args` filter
 that currently runs in `wp_dashboard_recent_drafts`. The filter is applied
 to both the shell count query and the rest_api callback query, enabling
 developers to (continue) modifying the default behaviour of the recent
 drafts list. Existing filter usage should continue to work.

 For example, I tested increasing the number of drafts shown in the list to
 10 using the following code in my theme `functions.php`, similar code
 could modify the query to change the defaults, for example adding a cpt or
 showing drafts from all users:

 {{{
 // Show 10 drafts in the recent draft list in the quick draft dashboard
 widget.
 function filter_the_draft_list( $query_args ) {
         $query_args['posts_per_page'] = 10;
         return $query_args;
 }
 add_filter( 'dashboard_recent_drafts_query_args', 'filter_the_draft_list'
 );
 }}}

 Here is a screenshot of the result:
