TESTING on Ubuntu 14.04 + LO 4.4.0.2 rc

When Saving a document or using Save-As, LibreOffice warns the user about the
potential for data/formatting loss on *every* file save with the message, e.g.:

 This document may contain formatting or content
 that cannot be saved in the currently selected
 file format “Microsoft Word 2007/2010/2013 XML”.

However, when using File -> Save a Copy, no such warning is provided.

The potential for loss is very real. For details, see Bug 87761 - [Meta]
Tracking bug for file format limitation issues

REPRO Steps:
- Open Writer
- File -> Save As -> (choose DOCX format)

RESULT: See a warning

- Now File -> Save a Copy -> (choose DOCX format)

RESULT: No warning

EXPECTED: Warning about potential for data loss
