What if there was only File->Open and you got a file chooser (as now) but with a tabbed interface (or buttons) to get to Open File / Scan / Screenshot / Web page

Goal: I'm sure I'm not alone in finding file->open and file->create confusing, along with file->create->from webpage being different from File->Open Location, both of which take a URI... it's a mess.
There shouldn't be too much confusion. File->Open should be for opening a file available locally to the computer (on the harddrive, memory stick, or network drive). File->Create is usedh b to create a new image (by running a plug-in) after setting some parameters.
What that leaves is things like creating images from a Screenshot, external web page, camera, or scanner. These options are most commonly found in programs under an File->Acquire menu entry.
