The warning after pressing Apply on an empty New Document tab

This is a followup to bug 109390

When you open the Hyperlink dialog, go to the New Document tab and press Apply
without doing anything, a popup warns "Please type in a valid file name." 
The fix to bug 109390 removed this on pressing the OK button, so the behavior
of OK is now consistent with other tabs OK button.

On this tab one is supposed to specify a file name in the File dropdown by
either typing it in or choosing one with the "Document" icon button on the
right. This file name will be the target of the new hyperlink.

On other tabs there is no similar warning when pressing Apply or OK and the
link target is not provided: just nothing happens on pressing Apply and on OK
the dialog closes.

So the questions are:
- is this warning necessary, given there is no similar warning popping up on
other tabs?
- if necessary, should this also be displayed when pressing OK (for consistency
on the same tab)?
