It looks like there is a small bug with the New MXM command, it shouldn't say Layer when selecting it.

What you can do instead is rightclick in the Layers area and add a new bsdf or sss, then you should see the material editor looking correctly.

Also the texture picker doesn't have a Close button anymore, since it's non-modal in 1.7, you can just select another texture chip and it's settings will be updated in the currently open texture picker. Just close it with the X button.
