(it seems that this Save as/Export discussion pops up every now and then dies out again. perhaps no-one really cares enough about essentially a change of wording? :)
Haven't thought too much about this, but think this will help the discussion:
To add an argument in favor of the current situation: one can open a PDF document, change it a bit, and then save it again *with Ctrl+S* without going to SVG or opening an export dialog.
To counter the accidental saving to "improper" format: note that if you saved to an "improper" format, there is a warning dialog upon closing the document.
Cheers, Johan

I'm in favor of us going the route that GIMP did. A) Because it makes sense and people won't accidentally only write to an "improper" format. B) For consistency.

just to put in my own two cents, I would expect to use "Save As..." only for those formats that are lossless and can survive a round trip, while Export to me means "lossy".
