Description
I think it would be good to separate the two options for creating a new vector layer:
"Create Spatiallite layer"
"Create Shapefile layer"
A menu for only two options is not optimal, and there would be enough space to put the two options in the normal menu below each other.

- Priority changed from Normal to Low
- Category set to GUI
Why is the current solution not optimal?
Is there the need to use both alternately?
For what I think:
- Every button that can be hidden leaves more room for others / more space for the map / reduces visual clutter
- I assume that most people use either always shapefile or always spatialite

There is no need for another tool button on the toolbar for this. I think we will creating a flexible Create New X dialog in the next version.
