It feels weird that when you click one of the configuration file items, it generates you a new file with a path into home dir but you cannot see the file on the file system or save it unless you make a change. You shouldn't be able to have a open a file that doesn't exist on disk yet and close it without getting asked what to do, IMO.

For the CSS file, it doesn't matter if it's just a blank file, it gets applied after the system one(s) and if it's blank it will do nothing. For other config files if you clicked it by accident, you just discard the file instead of going hunting for a file which doesn't actually exist on disk despite it being open in Geany with a file name.
