Something missing in "Network Connections" screen?

It seems as though "New Outgoing Connection" should also be listed in this
menu, afterall, the vast majority of connections made from a Vista PC will
be outgoing.

It's not in the Manage Network Connection screen. Go back to Network
and Sharing Center and select "Set up a connection or network"..

This is one of my GUI gotchas for Vista...

Yes, I knew where to configure it, just thought it was counterintuitive that
it wasn't also in "Network Connections".
