Creating a new script and adding it to the list of source scripts for
a project seems a bit clumsy presently. AFAICS the user needs to
manually edit the .proj file to add the name of the new script. Then
there doesn't seem to be a straightforward way to "refresh/reload" a
project to update the Sidebar "Source" tab. One option I have found is
to click the icon "Open last project" twice, which works but isn't
very obvious/discoverable.

Some ideas:
  * hook up the refresh button on the Sidebar source tab to "refresh"
the tab contents.
  * add a button to the Sidebar source tab that adds the current
script tab to the .proj file and "refreshes" the Sidebar source tab.
  * the last could eventually extended to enable dragging a script tab
to the Sidebar source tab to add it to the project source.
  * Add another menu item to the File menu "New project source" or
similar, that would create a new script and automatically add it to
the .proj and refresh the Sidebar source tab.
