I *vote* for the empty space, since it's the "project" that somehow is open and not a particular file.
Opening an untitled doc again on the contrary feels a bit confusing to me. More a workaround than a solution…
(for the nostalgic a giant TextMate icon is also acceptable)

Or it could be a Dashboard with some usage statistics - time spent using your 'favorite' languages, most accessed commands, frequently used keyboard shortcuts, number of bundles installed, etc.
Just a random thought I had - could be cool!

It would also be nice if there were a setting where when you close the last tab in a window, instead of the entire window closing, a new untitled document was used as a placeholder instead, just as when a folder is originally opened.

In the meantime, you can use the File → Open Recent menu item to semi-quickly reopen the thing. (Or right-arrow into TextMate using Quicksilver.)
Thank you, Rob for pointing out this quick recovery.
FWICT, when TM2 is launched from the command line on a directory, the window we are looking at is an untitled document window as opposed to an empty file browser window. That's the crux of the issue, right? If you close the last document window then the file browser goes with it, because the file browser is an accessory to the document window as opposed to being a standalone file browser.
This is a usability issue as I may never be able to prevent myself from closing a document window. Even when clicking on the close icon in the browser's file list, the browser is closed with it. I wonder how the TM2 Jedi Council will decide what will be the final behavior? Perhaps the most logical thing for TM2 to do is to open an Untitled document window if the file browser is in use and the last document window is closed.
