New Spaces button?

I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the correct place - this is either feedback or a feature request, depending how you look at it! I've found that in certain cases I really would like a "start new space" button, specifically:
(1) Moving around in a large office building which has many distinct rooms, but a generic wifi network for the whole building.
(2) Working in the field, with no wifi (yep, it happens!).
(3) Working where there is wifi, but nothing accessible to me.
In these cases Hololens is lost at boot-up, and I typically get the "cannot determine space" screen, but I don't want limited mode or an existing space - I want to just start a new space to play in!
I've got around this by setting up a few scratch spaces, which I can just load and recycle when asked to select a space, but it's not a very elegant solution, and requires one to have a PC connection (and forethought) to set up this in the first place, and manage the spaces. I'd much rather just have a new space option, replicating what Hololens does when it knows it's in a new space.
Apologies that this is probably an obvious request, but I couldn't find any other discussion of this in the forums...
