Comment (by humdinger):
Having separated menu items for "Save as..." and "Export as..." can make
sense, but not often.\\
WonderBrush is an example where it makes sense, because you have WB's own
fileformat that you want to keep saving at one location, and a production-
fileformat (like PNG or JPEG) that you alse want to keep saving at some
other location. You may want to check that changing PNG by reloading a
document in the browser, for example.
This isn't the case with ShowImage. Here I'd prefer one "Save as..." menu
item that opens a file dialog with a popup menu to choose the format, the
original's format preset. Bonus points for setting the right file type
suffix when changing the format. :)
