Having an empty slot at the top seems nice.

I'm a bit unsure if I interpreted the part about save game information right.
A) Always show information for the savegame AND current map at the same time, which I think would be confusing.
B) Show information for the savegame selected. If the empty slot is selected, current information is shown.

I first envisioned A when I read it, but have later realized you probably meant B. Though I wonder if instead of the current information, the fields should be left blank (---). If they are blank, it is clearer than no information is stored here yet, than if the current information is shown. I think it is much more consistent to use the fields to show "what is currently stored, which may be nothing", rather than "what is currently stored, unless it is the current info". In the latter case a player might be led to believe that the current information is stored in the empty slot.

Regarding the other request, the only one I found was bug 590528, which deals with replays, but I was certain there was a similar report about the load game menu.
