So, to summarize, I seem to propose to always offer to save into the dir where the last save was done, and failing that, to the home dir, _except_ maybe when you do Save as of a document (then go to that document's dir) or a first save of a document which was Ctrl+N'ed from another one. (These two exceptions may often give the same results as the "save to last save location" method.) Plus implement the "file creation from commandline" logic.
Let me see if I have this straight. When hitting 'Save As...' the directory should be:
1) The directory that it was last saved in 2) The directory that the last save was done in 3) The user's home directory
I'm cool with that (I won't be able to do it for about a week though).
Also, what should export do? I'm thinking that, most of the time, you'll want to export to the same directory as the file? I see two use cases for this:
1) You're changing the file type to a few to try, and so you want everything in the same directory 'My project'.
2) You have a directory that has all your vectored images in it, and you are exporting them for building something different (ie a webpage). So you want all the exported images in a directory for the webpage.
Any ideas on this? Which is most common?
