Hello...
Is it possible your expectation is based on a perspective that you have a project document? We may see different things when looking at the same thing. :) So, if we approach it as a project window then it is reasonable that you expect to see project-window-like things. On the contrary, I see the object as an untitled window with a drawer that displays a file browser. My suggestion was designed to be consistent with the paradigm that Allan has already established. Please note that I am not debating the issue... :) I merely want to point out a detail... so as to be informative: What happens when the User invokes the following:
mate dir
where dir is a directory of files in the CWD.
The result is an untitled document window with a drawer that displays a file browser. I was suggesting to simply go to that initial state.
Happy Friday! AZ

I agree, it just feels like what you expect.
If you want to go fancy and there's an internet connection then show latest news or a feed from this list.
But an empty space.. ++

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)
