Bug Description

Opening an empty (but valid) schematic file causes gschem's new-page-hook to place a title-block.

The new page hook should probably NOT be run for pages loaded from disk.

(Although it probably should be run for the new-page created when a page _cannot_ be loaded from disk, e.g. because the a file specified to open doesn't exist).

I want to re-open this, it has broken new-page functionality in xgsch2pcb.

As stated in the original report, we should probably run the new-page hook when a page _cannot_ be loaded from disk, e.g. because the a file specified to open doesn't exist.

Alternative - add some means to invoke gschem to create a new page, and pre-specify the filename to save into.

(Note that the alternative breaks old xgsch2pcb behaviour though).. You can twist my arm if you hate the idea of running the new-page hook for a "can't load" case.
