Me too. I also have to create the directories first before adding them 
to a project. Don't weather this is a feature or a bug :-)

Since OC divides into content and template, we do the following (we have 
many uni-stuttgart-sites here):
a) create the matching templates
b) create empty pages with that template
c) copy&paste the code/text from existing homepages into the active-x-editor
