We are trying to convince some MS Windows users at our institute to
use Emacs (for now, just for a specific purpose). These users have
certain expectations (some of them actually do make sense) and one of
them is that they can drop a file on the Emacs icon shortcut and that
file is then opened with Emacs, another is that when they open Emacs
with a double-click it should present an "untitled" buffer
ready-for-input.
Unless a user manually disables the splashscreen, neither of these
requirements works.
