If you type LICENSE into the filename box, Github provides a dropdown of licenses to choose from.

With that in mind, it would be nice if the Put A License On It site could open to the create screen with the filename filled in with LICENSE.

This can be done using the following URL pattern: https://github.com/[user]/[repo]/new/master?filename=LICENSE
