One comment here. Technically, the "create" happens when you create a  
new vector file. Then you "add" or "remove" features from the file by  
digitizing or other means (e.g., you can add points or area centroids  
by other modules). Indeed you create the features, but you add them to  
the vector file. Perhaps, this is angels dancing on the head of a  
pin...  ;-)
