Most software doesn't do mixing of different types of objects or wants you to not care whether you preserve your work. Firefox has no place in this list, and avidemux doesn't mix images with videos. Others? Well, digiKam, for instance, insists that you save every processed RAW image as a PNG/JPEG/TIFF file, while not even providing _any_ means to save the effects stack along. This is not how the state of the art software works, where changes are written to a sidecar text/xml file, so that the original is never touched, and no new physical files are created until you really need it; so that at any later time you could undo any of the changes or adjust them. If you work on a complex project with different types of data inside and non-destructive changes, the primary use case is to save it all and be able to open it all. The rest is optional. Period.
