Hm - then either the docs or the code has a bug.

`C-h v org-open-non-existing-files' gives me this:


   org-open-non-existing-files is a variable defined in `org.el'.
   Its value is nil
   
   Documentation:
   Non-nil means, `org-open-file' will open non-existing files.
   When nil, an error will be generated.
   
   You can customize this variable.
   
   [back]



As you can see, it says `org-open-non-existing-files' is nil. But still,
I can follow the link without error (even with `debug-on-error' == t).

I didn't notice that, since it's so natural to open such a file. It will
become a physical file once I save it, so I cannot see a reason to avoid
that.
