Description
After choosing a template to open, it shows the file open dialog - but it was not clear what I needed to load / locate. What is this for? There was no information before this point about what a template is. As XSLFast has input data documents and templates to deal with, and page concepts as well, some introductory information should be presented to new users - eg a wizard/splash that explains the workflow steps needed to create a document (open a template, select a datasource, and then produce the PDF).
VK: Here we need to let user choose XML/XSL file (such kind of UI below, maybe?), and explain user why we need this in few lines.
Possible change: add option
[x] Attach data source template (XML, DTD or XSD file)
For DTD and XSD file, let user choose XML with sample data too.
If it checked, show edit field and browse button to let user specify appropriate file. If not, before opening / creating new layout, ask user the XML / XSD file is necessary (The XML / XSD data source template is really needed to attach; do you want to do so? and if yes - ask for file as we doing now).
