Nautilus lacking "New Document" in the context menu

[Marc Thomas]

Catch 22. You can't create a new document in the template folder 
because there are no templates in the template folder.

As far as I know, that is working as it is intended, which is 
definitely inconvenient. My recommendation, open up whatever 
application that generated the file type you want (gedit, libreoffice, 
etc) and save a blank file into that folder. Then, you willl be able to 
create a new document from that template in any folder. You can also 
just create a new file in that folder with vim (or whatever text editor 
you want) and save it with whatever extension you want (txt, odt, py, 
cpp, etc).
