I missed the discussion of this new option but, honestly, I don't understand it from the tooltip and the Release Notes (which I edited some, but still).

What is "current working directory"? For an average Windows user this does not make much sense I guess. They just click icons. Can you explain it in more functional terms?
"current working directory" is the folder where the currently opened document is stored.
checkbox _on_: (simulating the behavior of previous Inkscape versions) the 'Save as...' dialog opens with the location of the currently opened document.
The tooltip explains what happens for previously saved or not saved documents. But both these are for this checkbox on, right? What if it is off?
checkbox _off_: the 'Save as...' dialog now always opens with the 'last used for saving a document' location.
Tooltip first version: 'When on, the "Save As ..." dialog uses the current working directory for saving (in case the file was already saved before so that this notion makes sense). Otherwise, the most recent "Save As ..." directory is used.'
Tooltip current version: 'The "Save As ..." dialog uses the current working directory for saving (if the file was previously saved). If not previously saved, the most recent "Save As ..." directory is used.'
Still confusing?
