Start the browser, double-click on the empty document --> "open file..."
triggers. I think that Opera have this feature. If not see Adobe Photoshop 6
(yes, i know... not a browser) to see what I mean.

could you pls provide more specific steps for this issue?

also, what build and operating system are you running?

Comment 3

Is the problem that this dialog appears?  Or is this a request that it appear, 
though it currently does not?

Comment 4

[José Jeria]

The request was that when you open the browser and no page is loaded, you could
doubleclick on the document to trigger the "open file..."
But after thinking of this, maybe its not a good idea at all. I mean, what Opera
does is that it loads the browser without any document, Mozilla does.
So for me this one could actually get closed. 
Sorry for not have thought of this more before submitting it.

this would be a significant change to the user interface.  Personally I don't 
like it.

Comment 9

[José Jeria]

As I said, please close it. I do not like it so much either the more I think
about it. Sorry...
