            Bug ID: 89192
           Summary: FILESAVE, UI: improve export process efficiency
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 4.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Drawing
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: li...@grr.la

There are few minor changes that could improve dramatically the export process
efficiency:
1. Remember the last export settings as filetype, file location, parameters;
2. Add the most used file formats used for export at the top of the list.
Usually, only few file formats are used more frequent. After the user exported
few times to a specific format, that file type should be displayed at the top
of the File Format drop-down list.
3. Add "Export to [filename]" in File menu above "Export..." after the user
exported a file first time. This way, the user could export again with a single
click a minor change in the opened file.

Workflow details for pt.3:
1. Open a new file and create some content
2. Click File > Export... to open the Export dialog and setup the parameters
3. Export the file with a certain name and format (let's say: TEST.PNG).
4. Make some changes in the opened file.
5. In the File menu will appear "Export to TEST.PNG" above the Export... item.
6. Click "Export to TEST.PNG" to overwrite the existing file with a new version
created with exactly the same settings/parameters as the previous export. This
action don't need to open again the Export dialog window and will simply
overwrite the existing file.

If the user wants to open the Export dialog window in order to create a
different file, it may choose Export... instead of the "Export to TEST.PNG"
