Bug Description

I don't want to spam the bugreports section, but this is an usability issue which I believe is
worth being considered.
I think that most people using a refererence archive software keep just one or few databases,
and that's in fact why the tagging mechanism comes handy.
the "new" (and btw "open") command has way too high visibility, being the first item in the first
menu, the first item in the toolbar and having even a keyboard shortcut.
pretty often (despite the fact that I've been using referencer for a couple of months) I find myself
clicking the "new" button (meaning basically to add an empty reference) and come out with an
empty database, so I need to reopen the previous (and my only) archive.

maybe others (and you?) disagree, so I will get used to this UI. otherwise, I would rather insert a couple of
"add XXX" buttons to the toolbar, from the "documents" menu, and leave only the save button referring
to the archive as a whole

thank you.
