[GREENFOOT-351] Open from first-time menu doesn't handle zipped scenarios
Do a fresh install of Greenfoot (or equivalently, destroy your Greenfoot profile files). You get offered a list of options, one of which is "choose a scenario". If you select a zip file here, then Greenfoot fails to open it, and silently hangs (from the user's point of view, it exits, but actually it is still there in the background, doing nothing). The error in the debug log is:
{{Internal error: Could not open scenario: C:\Documents and Settings\limited\My Documents\modern-crab.zip}}
If you open the same file from Project->Open once Greenfoot has loaded, it opens and extracts fine. This is a relatively obscure bug, but it comes to the fore when doing workshops, because the participants may need to open a downloaded zipped project with a freshly installed Greenfoot.
