Created attachment 195177 [details]
suggested create button to create not existing files on purpose.

Creating of new documents is currently only possible by opening libreoffice and using the graphical ui menu. Opening existing documents is also possible from command line by calling

```
loffice <documentpath>
soffice <documentpath>
```
If the document does not exist yet both commands open a dialog box reporting that the document does not exist. It would be appreciable if this box would in addition to inform that the document does not exist in the chosen path, offer to the option to create it at the chosen location.
