+1 for "New Window with Defaults" on Option-Cmd-N

We certainly don't need a new menu item for a rarely used option, but  
a hidden shortcut to suggest to newbies would have its uses.

I think it would be useful if it filled its own submenu automatically:

\_ Save Session
\_ Save Session As...
\_ Open Session
|   \_ my session
|   \_ test1

What this means is that Save Session would save the current session on  
itself, if there were a current session, otherwise it would work just  
like Save Session As, which would ask the user for a session name  
(possibly avoiding a full file selection dialog) and save the session  
file in a predefined directory (.vim/sessions?)  Open Session would be  
a dynamic submenu, listing the files available in that directory.

See the Opera browser for an example of how it looks like.
I think this is the most user frendly way to do it.
