I didn't really ask to create it, but to open it. And if there is data (actually, there shouldn't, as mentioned) it comes from somewhere already if I didn't write it myself, so why would I care about it? For all I care it opened a file. Agreed it's somewhat "magical", but the whole menu is, it's not merely opening the file.
Anyway, again I don't really mind, and can see your point technically, I just think it's not practically useful, and I fear getting a lot more users with modified configuration when the didn't mean to.
