For that I need to know what is faster -- to select one of available formats in a combobox, or to type three letters after the dot in the filename to let Inscape automagically figure out, what export algorithm to use.
I prefer to have the combo box because I hate requiring file extensions for anything. I think that they are an evil hack, but I understand the need to support them.
the combo box is useful because a simple user is not expected to know which is the list of all supported formats for export and in the absence of this list has to guess in order to type the extension name. for the advanced user, typing may be faster, so both options should be present.
