[Gimp-developer] save + export...

[Rob Antonishen]

Read this with intrest (as a user) what is the intrinsic difference
between save a copy and save as?  I am assuming the working document
changes in the save as case to the new saved as file. In the save a
copy case I assume the working doment is unchanged.

One suggestion in the revert...would it be possible introduce an timed
auto backup feature (I have implemented one using a scheme script I
invoke with a hot key, currently) and have the revert offer up any of
the automatic backups as well as the open state as a revert option?
