            Bug ID: 472210
           Summary: Open dialog could offer option to create empty file
                    when the filename is not found
    Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
           Product: frameworks-kio
           Version: 5.107.0

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The Open dialog shows this error when the filename is not present in the
directory:

The file '<file>' could not be found.

So far so good.

My suggestion is that the error dialog could suggest creating an empty file
with that name. I would find it more useful than to have to close that error
dialog, close the open dialog, and then tell the app to create a new file, and
at some point having to enter the filename when saving for the first name.

Of course this probably means that the applications will have to support a new
API for creating empty files (whatever that means for them) with the filename
returned by the dialog.
