Bug Description
Launcher - Add 'new document (or drawing, spreadsheet, etc...)' option to Open Office, Gimp and Inkscape quicklists
Description:
In user testing we found that users had difficulty creating new documents. To provide a shortcut to this common use case a 'new document' entry should be added to the quicklist of the following applications:
1) Open Office word processor - "New Document"
2) Open Office spreadsheet - "New Spreadsheet"
3) Open Office presentation - "New Presentation"
4) Gimp - "New Image"
5) Inkscape - "New Drawing"

I was about to file-something about the sub-optimal use-case of opening a second/third/fourth GNOME Terminal instance... perhaps the same approach right-click approach could be taken for applications that generally need to be opened multiple times (this was one of the first things that I instinctively tried).
