[ BUILD # : 200509261930 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_05 ]

I find this a common pattern:
1. Create a new Module Suite.
2. Try to create a new project in that module, by right clicking on the suite in the projects pane and looking for a "New Project" item.
It's not there, so I have to go to File / New Project, select the type, and then change the project location to point to the new suite.
(or, if I remember, select the new suite first and the project location magically gets set correctly.)

It would just be easier to be able to add them directly to the suite.

To be complete, you should probably have both 
"New Module Suite" and "New Library Wrapper Project" but I don't use the latter much so it's not as much an issue for me.

Admittedly a very minor issue, but should be simple to implement.
