[Bf-funboard] Recover last session, open recent, and open

I agree with Bassam's analysis here, although I think there is a clarity 
issue in the Ctrl-X New function. When you do this, the confirmation 
popup reads "OK? Erase All" That's silly. You're starting a new Blender 
session. Yes, that erases the current memory, but that's a 
behind-the-scenes explanation, not a user-oriented one. Users read that 
as "erase all objects in my file" which is not what they want to do. 
Better would be "OK? Start New Session (Closes Current)" although that's 
kind of long.

> Hi, in my opinion, we are "ok"... Here is my reason:
>> 1) Recover last session.
> pops up a "dialog"- you have to do the further action of selecting which
> file to recover
>> 2) New File
> you yourself say it's OK..
>> 3) Open File
> F1? just opens the filechooser- this is actually the safest one, since
> it doesn't do anything destructive.
