Thanks for the reply, Yea, I guess part of what I worry about is that well, users exposed to GNOME 3 in the past will know that they could just do `touch ~/Templates/MyFile.extension`. But for the masses or those being introduced to Ubuntu GNOME for the first time as a both a choice and desktop environment it might turn out frustrating as they wouldn't have an idea.
Was thinking if leaving blank templates like LIbreOffice files, Text file, would be in place. Well, this is just my two cents. I just recently started using Ubuntu GNOME recently and I also don't want to walk over what has been planned, etc. (posting again as I posted directly to Marc, sorry!)
