File->Create is not related at all to File->Open.
it is related to File->New.
it is New with the size (and maybe other) parameters set,
and the specified content (which is always _not_ a file)
in the first layer.
I maintain it is very important to have a direct menu
item to do:
> File->Create

> from webpage

with shortcuts (for the stable items I guess) being assignable
and no penalty of dialogs (if possible).
we can discuss again how Create was named (I was involved,
so it ain't half bad); it was to not to have New... and under it
New > (with a submenu).
