I just found out that when I create a new (empty) file like this:

 touch foo.odt

And I try to open it in OOo-Writer I get prompted for the Character Encoding and
line separation to use. 

Instead of this behaviour it would be very helpful just to check whether the
file has a length of zero and create a new Document of the appropriate type.
This should work not only for .odt, but for .ods / .odp aswell.

Thanks for your time.
