Description:
Here is an idea for workflow - several ways of creating a Map exist that do not involve a project, right now activities like Drag and Drop create a Default Project. There are many things wrong with this approach. Here is an alternative

1. Cerate a Map via DnD a url onto the Editor area
2. Map is created in a unsaved state, with a * indicating it needs to be saved
3. Save is not available, Cntrl-S will result in Save As being called
4. Save As asks for the Map's name, and project to save the Map into from the list of opened projects, and has a button to 'Browse' project.
5. Pressing 'Browse' opens a file browser, the user can locate an existing project on the file system or type in the name of a project to be created
6. The project is opened in the Projects View and the Map is selected.

In most cases this workflow won't be needed, there will already be a project selected and the Map may be created there.
