Talking about "Save a copy"
magine having things such as special expressions in the export dialog name which would transform into unique characters e.g. massive_project_%n.svg
This is cool, but given the target audience (everyone) what about having "Save a copy" or "Save a backup" or whatever just automatically offer massive_project_<n>.svg as a filename where <n> is one more than the highest numbered version found. Seems to me expecting people to understand % substitution is asking too much.
But it would have to be an option. Or maybe a separate menu item could be "save incremental copy) or some such thing which would query existing files (as you specify above). It might be more menu clutter, but it might be really useful, too.
