<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
