Hi everyone,
            I haven;t seen anybody jump and defend either the new text box
query or the old behaviour of openning a new window after a
file drag and drop.

I will remove the text box query and make pasting the new behavior unless
the current document is empty is which case the file will be loaded in the
current window.

Cheers

Martin
