The ConcreteConfigure method returns false and sets the error message whenever 
the filename is empty. It also does that if it is not empty but a bad file is 
given.

Yep. You guessed it. But don't forget also setting the error message so that 
the NetEditor user can see the problem by hovering the processing with the 
cursor.
