"Open" opens an existing document! Isn't a class/template already
defined inside an existing document? Why must it popup a "New from
Template"?

Could the following layout be suitable:

File->New
      New from template 
      Open
      ---
[...]


New:               Use "invalid" filename; when saved, call
                   automatically 'Save as...'.

New from template: This should do, as you explained in earlier emails.

Open:              Collapse "Open" and "Import". Open according to file
                   extension: .lyx, .tex, .txt, .nw, .doc are opened as
                   you expect.
                   Does .txt input need a "as lines/as paragraph" popup?
