Open a .doc document. file->save as. navigate to a non-default location on your system to save the document. click save. the "Keep current format / Save in ODF" dialog appears. that's cool - obviously I didn't want to save the document in this diabolic format. click "Save in ODF Format". A completely new "Save As" dialog appears, again, in the default save location - which means the effort the user invested in navigating to the desired location and selecting a file name is wasted. Proposed improvements: 1. Save the previos location and filename, except for extenstion if it exists. 2. Put the "Keep current format / Save in ODF" dialog in the begining of the flow (immediatly after the user clicks "Save As").
Confirmed for LibreOffice 3.4 340m1(Build:103) on OpenSuse Linux.
