I think this patch is useful.  Perhaps, the same y-or-n-p question
"Directory `%s' does not exists; create? " should be asked also in
`after-find-file' (with a call to `make-directory') instead of displaying
"Use M-x make-directory RET RET to create the directory and its parents"
because typing `y' as an answer to this question is less to type than
`M-x make-directory RET RET'.
