Have a look at the script that handles scanning for new files and  
such (you see it when you right-click a file or directory in the  
project manager). It limits the scan to the path of the file or  
directory you click on.

And what of Project -> Add new file? It adds a blank file to the  
current project, prompting you to type the filename first.
