WindowMaker should open on Blank page instead of the "Open Window" menu

When I double-click to edit my InTouch application, I get presented with the Open menu, which is:
1- Unintuitive. It's like opening MS Word but being presented immediately with the "Open Document" interface, instead letting me chose if I want to work on a blank document or open a new one.

2- Cumbersome. The WM Open Window interface is difficult/impossible to navigate when there are more than 10 windows in the application (thumbnails are too big, I need to click them away).

3- Slow. Generating the thumbnails and displaying them on the VM opening slows down the operation by quite a lot, and it is proportionally increasing the loading times when there are more and more Windows to load and thumbnails to generate. It's not rare to have 100+ to 1000 windows in an application, so the thumbnail navigation is useless there.


I would rather open VM on a blank page, then navigate my windows using the "Windows & Scripts" tree view, which has a browsable / folders / sub-subfolders structure

    This is an excellent feedback and I'm very curious to here from more contributors on this feedback forum about this particular topic and other usability quirks. We can definitively address such things and improve on the overall experience.
