Currently, if you use find-file (C-x C-f) to find a file in a non-
existant directory, mg (and emacs - coincidentally) suggest you create
the directory manually with the make-directory command. This diff
offers to create the missing directory by pressing 'y'. If mg cannot
create the missing the directory for some reason, it behaves the same
as before and opens a read-write buffer.
Another option would be having mg try and create the directory on the
fly (without having to press 'y') and then giving a message on its
success or failure.
